Borussia Dortmund’s Sporting director Sebastian Kehl, has claimed that no offers have been made for Jude Bellingham this January.

Liverpool and Real Madrid are the two clubs who have been most linked with Bellingham.

While reports from England tip Liverpool as the favourites to sign Bellingham, Spanish media believe the Los Blancos have done a good underground job to beat Liverpool to the signing of the Englishman.

Having previously been in similar situations with names like Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho in the past, Dortmund are aware of the power they possess, and may place an asking price in excess of £100 million on the England International.

While speaking with Kicker recently, Kehl, who once played for Dortmund, provided an update on the future of Bellingham, who remains under contract with the Bundesliga outfit until 2025. According to him, Dortmund have no intention of giving up the teenager, although there are currently no offers for him.

He said: “Jude has made an incredible development here. With the way he plays football, his fighting spirit and his commitment, he has become a real Borussia player who identifies very much with BVB.”

Kehl added: “I can’t say today if and when that will be the case with Jude, and from a purely sporting point of view I would be stupid to want to give up Jude Bellingham. We’ll talk to him and his parents in due course. There is currently no pressure. Jude wants to concentrate fully on football. And by the way, there are no offers at all.”
