Jude Bellingham is heading for Liverpool and has been telling people as much, according to former Middlesbrough midfielder Craig Hignett.
In fact Hignett, 51, who made 155 appearances for Boro, says that England midfielder Bellingham “is almost a cert” to sign for Jurgen Klopp’s men. The 18-year-old England starlet is one of the most talented young midfielders in Europe and the Reds have been linked with a move for the player.
A report in The Times in September, written by Merseyside journalist Paul Joyce, confirmed Liverpool’s interest
The article claimed that while his sale looked unlikely in the summer 2022, the Reds do have, according to Joyce and Matt Lawton, “significant interest” in Bellingham.
They, along with Manchester City and Manchester United, would all make serious moves to sign him if Borussia Dortmund were to sell.
