Liverpool: Klopp wants BVB star - the transfer fee is astronomical

Borussia Dortmund is considered a top address for the development of young players.

Now ex-trainer Jürgen Klopp has an eye on one of the coveted talents - the transfer fee called is astronomical.

Liverpool - The transfer window has only been closed for a few days. One of the most exciting periods of change in recent football history is over. With Lionel Messi * and Cristiano Ronaldo *, the two best footballers of the past decade have found a new employer, and there was wild speculation about record transfer fees for Kylian Mbappe * and Erling Haalan *. But just when it seemed to be calm, the big wealthy clubs are already planning their next steps to break promising players away from other clubs.

Especially talents from the ranks of Borussia Dortmund are regularly in the focus of such rumors.

The German cup winner has a squad full of jewels.

A fact that has not escaped a former BVB coach.

Because now, of all people, Jürgen Klopp * has his eye on a youngster in the black and yellow.

The manager of Liverpool * would like to sign the boy next summer - the transfer fee called is astronomical.

Liverpool: Klopp wants to sign top talent from Dortmund - transfer fee makes you sit up and take notice

In the past transition period, Liverpool FC acted rather cautiously compared to other top teams in the Premier League *. With Ibrahima Konate came another alternative for central defense for 40 million euros. In addition, well-known players such as Georginio Wijnaldum were handed in. That should change in the next year. According to English media reports, the Reds want to dig deep into their pockets for an actor in Dortmund's Borussia.

Ex-BVB coach Jürgen Klopp wants to bring the English super talent Jude Bellingham * into the Premier League.

For this, the club is ready to invest a record fee.

The services of the 18-year-old Englishman are said to be worth 93 million euros (80 million pounds) to the 2019 Champions League winner.

This would make the midfielder the most expensive new addition in the club's history.

Virgil van Dijk has the current record since his transfer from Southampton to Liverpool.

Liverpool: 93 million for Bellingham - will BVB be weak?

The contract situation of the English international could hardly be better for BVB. Since Bellingham was only signed by Birmingham City in 2020 for 23 million euros, his working paper is still valid until 2025. He does not have an exit clause. This means that those responsible for the Black and Yellows have the reins of action in their hands. The performance data do not let the teenagers' market value decrease either. In his 51 appearances in the Borussia jersey, the youngster was able to score twelve points. He also shows his skills in the national team and has already played eight international matches at a young age.

It is questionable whether the Ruhrpott club will be weak with a high supply. A large part of the transfer income was already used this summer to absorb the monetary income that was lost due to the corona pandemic. On the other hand there is a possible sale of Erling Haaland. The Norwegian star striker can leave the club for a fixed sum of 75 million euros. If Bellingham continues to operate at a high level, the offers will not go silent. If he is spared injuries, he could swap the yellow jersey for a red one next year.
