Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has reportedly urged former Borussia Dortmund teammate Jude Bellingham to join him at the Etihad Stadium.

Haaland played alongside Bellingham at Borussia Dortmund for two seasons before leaving the German side to join Manchester City this summer.

According to Manchester Evening News, Haaland has already told Bellingham to link up with him at Manchester City and snub Real Madrid.

Real Madrid have reportedly made the England international a priority target for next summer while Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea are also interested in the 19 year old midfielder.

It has been claimed that the Dortmund man could be available in an £83million agreement next summer, despite him being under contract at the German club until 2025.
