Jude Bellingham might stay put this summer.

It was thought that the 19-year-old Borussia Dortmund sensation was destined to leave the Bundesliga outfit this summer, with a move to the Premier League deemed most likely.

However, The Times claim that Bellingham would rather stay at Dortmund and reassess his future in 2024 than make a move that is not right for him this summer.

Bellingham has been linked with moves to not only Manchester United, but Man City and Liverpool. There’s been a few whispers about a potential switch to the La Liga or Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, too.

This would be a rather mature decision, especially one for a 19-year-old to make, but the England starlet did decide to move to Germany at a young age before establishing himself as one of the Bundesliga’s brightest prospects.

United have been linked with Bellingham for years, but it is believed that interest has been retained as Erik ten Hag looks to sign another creative midfielder at the end of the season.

It would be a shock if Bellingham waited another year to leave Bellingham with a host of clubs believed to be chasing him. Maybe the club he wants to join has been priced out of a move this summer?
