Bellingham’s new destination revealed! Transfer talks underway

According to reports in Germany, Borussia Dortmund has taken a major step to sign Bellingham from Sunderland.

Florian Plettenberg from Sky Sport Germany stated that the 19-year-old forward has made a '100 percent decision' to join Dortmund and has informed Bundesliga rival Eintracht Frankfurt of his choice. Now Dortmund needs to pay Sunderland the asking price of €30 million (£25 million/$34 million).

Plettenberg, negotiations between Sunderland and Dortmund will begin "soon." There is still some distance to cover in the process, but Bellingham is expected to play football in Germany at the start of next season. Following this transfer, it will be easier for him to secure a spot in England's 2026 World Cup squad in the short term.
