Liverpool reportedly pulled out of the running to sign Jude Bellingham due to his high price tag last month, but he is now expected to join Real Madrid for a considerably lower fee. Spanish publication Marca claims that the initial fee would be €100 million, which is around £87 million, with this then raised by performance and appearance-based clauses. Fabrizio Romano has added to these reports by writing that the “agreement [is] at [the] final stages,” again stating an up-front fee of €100 million and that Bellingham’s “salary will improve season by season,” with performance incentives built into the deal that will run to 2029. Liverpool’s failure to qualify for the Champions League may have clouded any pursuit of the 19-year-old, but at face value, it would not seem to be a prohibitive deal for the Reds from a financial perspective. However, any concrete developments over Bellingham’s future will not be confirmed until next week at the earliest and it appears unlikely that Liverpool have revived any pursuit.
