According to Matt Law from Telegraph (h/t Liverpool Echo), Chelsea are still trying to convince Jude Bellingham to join them over Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Manchester City.
This news comes as a blow to Liverpool fans who had hoped that Bellingham would be making the move to Anfield in the near future. The Englishman is one of the most sought-after players in the world.
Despite being 10th in the Premier League, Chelsea’s billionaire owner Todd Boehly has spared no expense in building a team that can challenge for the top honours in Europe. The Blues have spent over £500 million

While Liverpool has a rich history of developing young talent, the Reds have been relatively quiet in the transfer market over the past year, especially in the midfield region where there has been a need for reinforcement.
Yes, they did make big signings for the attacking area in Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo. However, there is a feeling that the Reds are planning something big for midfield and that might be Bellingham.
It’s no secret that Liverpool’s midfield has been hit hard by injuries and poor form this season, with players such as Naby Keita, and Thiago Alcantara spending time on the sidelines and Jordan Henderson and Fabinho being woefully out of form.
This has highlighted the need for the Reds to bring in reinforcements in the middle of the park, with Bellingham being seen as the ideal candidate to add some much-needed energy and creativity to Liverpool’s midfield.
To sign Bellingham, Liverpool might need Champions League football to convince him. Let’s see if they qualify for the same.
