Speaking on The Athletic's Liverpool podcast, Walk On, he says that differing factors have contributed to why he believes it is "increasingly unlikely" Bellingham will join the Reds this summer.

Bellingham was eligible to play for his native England and also for the Republic of Ireland, for which he qualified via a grandparent. The future of the 19-year-old has been subject to speculation since his astronomic rise in football following performances with Borussia Dortmund and then England at the World Cup last November. Liverpool are Jude Bellingham's first choice destination should he leave Borussia Dortmund, according to reports. Unlike Saka, Mason Mount, Declan Rice or any of the other players in Southgate’s squad who have blossomed after being nurtured in the thriving English academy system, Bellingham has left his homeland. They've got a lot of work to do in their squad, they're embarking on that, there is also the competition with Manchester City very keen.There is something about him; in Madrid there is a willingness to see in him a player that could mark an era here, to believe they are witnessing the birth of someone genuinely different.

However, one observer insists all the talk of Bellingham signing for Liverpool may be a little too premature. Away, sure, but this is a classic, against Athletic Bilbao, one of only three teams never relegated. Many believed at the time that Bellingham would leave Birmingham, and it was reported that he and his father had visited several major clubs, of which Manchester United and Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund were the favourites.Thus, it was calculated that Bellingham had scored 10 goals in his first 10 matches for Madrid, equaling Cristiano Ronaldo's goal tally after his first 10 games for the club in 2009.
