The young Borussia Dortmund talent Jude Bellingham is attracting the interest of many clubs in the Old Continent.

As reported by "Marca", the 19-year-old midfielder is particularly tempted by Real Madrid, who have identified the Englishman as a priority target in the coming years.

It is reported that the royal team even instructed the player not to extend his current contract with the representatives of the Bundesliga.

According to Real Madrid, this move will avoid additional obstacles when trying to sign the player as early as next summer.

Currently, J. Bellingham's contract with the Dortmund club is valid until the summer of 2025, and it includes a €150 million buyout clause.

It is said that Real Madrid could pay exactly that amount for one of the most promising players in Europe.
