Borussia Dortmund boss, Edin Terzic has insisted that he believes Jude Bellingham is focused on helping the club through the season, despite multiple reports linking the England international with a transfer away from the Bundesliga.

The 19-year-old is rumoured to be of interest to Real Madrid, with a summer move possibly on the cards. But Terzic is adamant the midfielder is not distracted by the rumours.

“I don’t think there’s a player that’s been more speculated about in our squad right now than Jude has been in the last few weeks and months,” Terzic is quoted saying by Goal.

“Because he’s an outstanding talent; because he is, I think, past that talent status, even though he’s only 19.

“He is an extremely important player for us, who has now scored the first goal in a game for us again, who was extremely important in both attack and defence on Sunday.

“We are sure that Jude will play a leading role again in the game in Leverkusen on Sunday.”
