Paris Saint-Germain president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, has admitted the club is interested in signing Jude Bellingham, just like everyone else.

Bellingham has been on fire since his 2020 switch to Borussia Dortmund, and is currently one of England’s best players at the World Cup, where he has been involved in the goals and assists.

A number of clubs are said to be keen on opening talks with Dortmund for the signing of the 19-year-old, including Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Real Madrid, but now it seems there’s now even more competition for the teenager, with PSG having entered the picture.

Al-Khelaifi told Sky Sports: “Everybody wants him. I’m not going to hide it.

“Amazing player. What a player. He’s one of the best players in the tournament.

“First World Cup, and calm and relaxed, confident – amazing.”

He added: “We have respect.

“He’s with his club and if we want to talk to him we’ll talk to his club.”

Jude Bellingham was previously rated as a £100m  player, but following his recent club form and exploits at the World Cup, figures of £130m are beginning to make the round.
