Man Utd to battle Liverpool for £100m midfielder?

Manchester United could reportedly go head-to-head with Liverpool in the race to sign Jude Bellingham next summer.

The Red Devils bolstered their midfield department with Casemiro this summer and he is now a regular starter under Erik ten Hag.

Despite this, the club are on the look out for another midfield signing and Bellingham is one of the leading names under consideration.

Speaking to Wettfreunde, Gianluca Di Marzio has said that United and Liverpool seem the best positioned clubs to land Bellingham.

Both teams are currently outside of the Champions League places, but Di Marzio feels their projects would perfectly suit the Englishman.

Bellingham still has three years remaining on his existing deal, but Dortmund are braced for his big-money departure next summer.

They are set to demand a transfer package of around £100 million and this is well within the reach of two of the world's most richest clubs.

The duo could face stiff competition from Real Madrid for the teenager.
