Bellingham wanted by PSG
Jude Bellingham is being courted by Paris Saint Germain.
The English International is one of the hottest prospects in world football and is under the radar of a lot of big clubs.
But PSG have eyed him as their priority signing as they feel he will be the missing piece in their midfield.
Bellingham was sensational for Dortmund last season, being one of the Bundesliga’s standout players at just 21 years of age.
But Paris Saint Germain are not the only club that are looking to get Bellingham.
Liverpool have also expressed their interest in the Dortmund Sensation.
Jurgen Klopp has expressed publicly of how high he rates Bellingham.
The German coach feels he is already one of the best midfielders in the world and will only get better.
Liverpool will not find it easy to sign him, with Dortmund wanting him to stay.
Bellingham will not be a cheap signing for any club, be it PSG or Liverpool.
They will have to splash out the cash if they want to sign the English midfielder.
PSG are in desperate need of a world-class technical midfielder who can pair up alongside Verratti.
Boss Galtier has clarified that they still need 3 world-class signings to compete in Europe.
But Liverpool are also desperate to get Jude as Thiago is now injured for a long time.
Barcelona and Real Madrid also keen
But it is easier said than done.
A player like Jude Bellingham is valued by a lot of European biggies.
2 of them are Barcelona and Real Madrid.
The Spanish Giants are the ultimate pinnacle in football, a dream destination for players.
It will be hard for any player to resist them if these Spanish giants offer them.
Bellingham surely would find it hard to refuse Los Blancos or the Catalans.
This would not be good news for the likes of PSG, or Liverpool.
Barcelona’s Xavi value Bellingham a lot and will be willing to bring him to Camp Nou.
The attraction power of Barca and Madrid just seems too powerful for any other club in the world.
But Barcelona are also keen on pursuing Bernardo Silva.
The 19-year-old Bellingham scored 6 times and assisted a further 14 times last season.
Time will tell where Bellingham will land up next.

WATCH: Georgina Rodriguez makes huge claim on Cristiano Ronaldo’s retirement in Football
Georgina Rodriguez made a huge claim on the future of her husband and star player, Cristiano Ronaldo, in Football. In a brief interaction with a host recently, Rodriguez was asked about the time left for Cristiano to make an impact at the highest level. Georgina looked honest in her approach to the question of the host and claimed something the fans would not love to hear.
Georgina claimed that the Portugal star has maybe one year more from him at the highest level. She felt that Ronaldo might play two more years before retiring and not more than that. She was however not sure if he would play for just one or two years and added that the Al Nassr star could also play more than that.

“Cristiano one more year, then it’s over. Maybe two, I don’t know,” said Rodriguez in the little chat she had with the host. The video has gone viral on X and the fans have started sharing it on different platforms. Some of the fans feel that Georgina might be right, while others feel that she could be wrong, given the fitness and longevity of the star player.
Legacy of Cristiano Ronaldo
On the 5th of February, Ronaldo celebrated his 39th birthday. He is currently one of the oldest players in the world. In the past, players at this age would have retired way back. But the fitness and consistency of Ronaldo make him play the sport as long as he wishes. In his career so far, Ronaldo has won many major leagues for Portugal and league teams like Real Madrid, Al Nassr, and Manchester United.
With United, Portugal won some major leagues like the FA Cup and the Champions League. With Real Madrid, the 39-year-old won the leagues like the UCL, Copa Del Rey and La Liga. He won it three consecutive times for Real Madrid. For Portugal, Cristiano had a huge contribution to Portugal. He has the most number of appearances and goals for an international team and won the Euro 2016 with Portugal.

Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham slapped with Red Card as he argued with referee
England and Real Madrid player Jude Bellingham was slapped with a Red Card during the La Liga game against Valencia. In the game, the home team, Valencia was leading by 2-0 after 30 minutes before Madrid scored in the injury time of the first half. Vinicius Junior opened the scoring for Madrid while Hugo Duro (27′) and Roman Yaremchuk (30′) scored a goal each.
In the 76th minute, Junior scored an equalizer to keep the team in the game. However, in the injury time of the second half, Bellingham was given a red card as he argued with the referee against calling it a full-time before he could score. In reply, the match official decided to slap the England international with a Red Card. The team coach Carlo Ancelotti wasn’t happy with the verdict as the Three Lions player was making a pass at the time.
Jude Bellingham verbally abusing officials and other footballers at the slightest provocation needs to be talked about more. It’s embarrassing he gets applauded by Real Madrid Fans.

“I think what’s just happened is unprecedented. It’s never happened to me,” Ancelotti told reporters.
“We had possession of the ball and the match should have been finished when Valencia had the ball.
“What bothers us is the red card for Bellingham because he didn’t say anything insulting. He was frustrated of course,” said Ancelotti, adding that Bellingham had used a common English swearword when telling the referee it was a goal.
We are annoyed with Jude Bellingham’s Red Card: Carlo Ancelotti
“We were annoyed with Bellingham’s red card. He didn’t say any insults. He said in English ‘it’s a f—ing goal,’ but he was just saying what we were all thinking … [The referee] allowed play to continue. I think he made a mistake.”
“[Bellingham] was clear in what he said,” Ancelotti added. “He was quite vehement [in his reaction] but that’s normal, after what happened. It wasn’t an insult, not at all.”
