Jude Bellingham scores a stunning goal for Borussia Dortmund during his first game since World Cup

Liverpool target Jude Bellingham scored a stunning goal from outside the box during his first match for Borussia Dortmund against Augsburg since England’s World Cup elimination by France six weeks ago.

The 19-year-old certainly wasted no time in his return to the pitch, opening the scoring in wonderful fashion, to score his fourth goal in 15 appearances for the Bundesliga side.

Dancing around the edge of the penalty box, Bellingham evades two Augsburg defenders to fire a hard-hitting low shot into the bottom right corner.

And what a coup it was, with the box-to-box midfielder proving he can not only create goals, but score them as well, claiming his 19th goal for the club.

It comes as England’s World Cup hero is set to announce that he will turn down a £180-a-week contract offer from Dortmund later this week.

SportsMail reports suggest that he will sit down with the Bundesliga club later this week to discuss more about his contract, which is due to expire this summer.

But considering the goal he has scored, they will undoubtedly work as hard as possible to keep the young prospect.

The goal is Bellingham’s fourth this season and his 19th at Borussia Dortmund.

Several top clubs are in the market to acquire the young midfielder with Liverpool and Real Madrid both hoping to sign Bellingham.

Earlier this week, Dortmund manager Edin Terzic had reportedly told Bellingham to turn down any offers from both clubs in a bid to get him to stay in Germany.

However, it seems Liverpool are still interested in signing the midfielder with Steven Gerrard suggesting yesterday that he would work with the Merseyside club to help lure Bellingham to Anfield.
