Jurgen Klopp has reached an agreement with Liverpool leaders to go all-in on Jude Bellingham next summer, according to reports in Germany.
Bellingham, 19, is currently one of the hottest properties in European football having become a key member of Borussia Dortmund’s midfield at such a young age.
The race for his signature is expected to intensify towards the end of the current season, with players such as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Chelsea, as well as Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp has reportedly agreed to go all-in on the Borussia Dortmund midfielder in 2023
According to Sports Imagethe Reds are now determined to lure Bellingham to Merseyside after Klopp made it clear he would fully support a big-money transfer next summer.
Anfield officials are said to have set aside around £86million to get their hands on the England international, but that price is falling well below Dortmund’s valuation.
It is believed the Bundesliga club, which tied Bellingham to a new four-year deal in 2021, will demand at least £129million for his services.

Should Liverpool or any of their English rivals live up to that rating, they would break the record Premier League transfer – Jack Grealish’s £100m move to City last year – by almost £30m.
Although according to El Chiringuito journalist Jose Alvarez Haya, as reported by marcaBellingham would rather sign with Madrid than return to his home country next summer.
The teenager is reportedly looking to lead a new generation in Los Blancos’ midfield, where he believes he can prove he is an ‘important’ player.
City are said to have contacted his representatives but were told Madrid would be his number one priority if the right offer came in.

Bellingham made 109 appearances for Dortmund after completing a £25 million transfer from Birmingham in 2020.
Such was the impact he had in a short time at St Andrew’s, the Blues controversially ditching his No 22 shirt after letting him join Dortmund to ‘remember one of our own people and inspire others’.
Eight months into his 20th birthday, Bellingham has already won 17 caps for England and is sure to be included in Gareth Southgate’s World Cup squad later this month.
