Real Madrid are close to finalising a deal for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham, with negotiations over personal terms said to be at an advanced stage. The Spanish giants are believed to have beaten competition from Manchester City, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain for the 17-year-old’s signature. Bellingham is expected to sign a six-year contract worth £17m per year, with the deal set to include bonuses and performance-related add-ons. Real are keen to announce the signing as soon as possible, with talks expected to accelerate after Dortmund’s Champions League semi-final second leg against Manchester City on Wednesday.
