According to German outlet BILD, Newcastle are ‘trying to get involved’ in the race for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham this summer.
It is expected that the youngster will look for a new challenge in the next window, as staying in Germany is now ‘no longer an option’, but he personally wants to take time to assess things before making a decision.
The 19-year-old is one of the world’s hottest prospects and is being chased by a number of European giants including Liverpool, Real Madrid, PSG and Chelsea.
However, this report has suggested that Newcastle are now trying to get involved in the battle for the midfielder, but we will almost certainly need to qualify for the Champions League this season to have any hope whatsoever of signing him.
Even then it would still remain a huge task to secure the England international. However, it shows the scale of our ambitions if we really are having behind the scenes conversations about the Bundesliga star who is already developing into one of the world’s best box to box midfielders.
Uner our ambitious new owners, at least we can dare to dream!
would be an amazing bit of business if it could be done – this lad is an incredible footballer already
