Liverpool target’s father wants him to join Reds as head turned by transfer interest – report

Jude Bellingham’s future remains an unknown despite heavy interest from the likes of Manchester City and Real Madrid – the pair of which are said to have turned the player’s head.

It has to be emphasised that, for now, the midfielder has YET to make a decision on his future and have that critical discussion with his current club over his future beyond the 2022/23 campaign.
