Chelsea are always looking to pick up the world’s best youngsters, and there aren’t many being coveted like Jude Bellingham of Birmingham right now.
The midfielder is just 16 and has a queue of clubs looking to sign him up. SportWitness name Chelsea, Tottenham and several of the big German sides among them. Man U have also made their interest known.
Our Story: Jude Bellingham @BCFC will not join @FCBayern. @BVB is still the favorite for the transfer @SPORTBILD @westsven

The fact that the Germans are involved means that Christian Falk of SportBild is on the case, and he names Borussia Dortmund as “favourites” to sign the superbly talented wonderkid.
Thanks to players like Christian Pulisic and Jadon Sancho, Dortmund are getting a great reputation for giving youngsters the chance to develop but then also allowing them to leave for the right price when the time comes.
We can see why that’s tempting to a player like Bellingham, who just wants to keep playing and keep getting better for now, and will bide his time before making the move to Man U or Chelsea in the future.
