Real Madrid are reportedly close to signing Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham this summer.
The England international is one of the hottest young talents in world football and he could move to the Bernabeu soon.
According to Marca, the midfielder has agreed a six-year deal in principle and Madrid will now discuss with Dortmund.
Dortmund were initially holding out for around €140 million for their prized asset but are now ready to accept €100-120m.
Bellingham has had better contract offers from Manchester City and Liverpool but his decision is based on the sporting aspect.
The youngster wants to win regular trophies in the prime of his career and believes Los Blancos are the right club for him.
Madrid are yet to finalise any transfer fee with Dortmund but reports claim that an agreement could be sealed this month.
The news will come as a huge blow for Liverpool, who have been in constant contact with Bellingham’s camp since last summer.
