Borussia Dortmund are famous for snapping up the stars of tomorrow and developing them into excellent talents for some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
All eyes will be on a certain Norway international in this transfer window, but another emerging star that could end up demanding an even bigger fee one day is none other than Jude Bellingham.
The England international has quickly established himself as a first team starter at Dortmund and is quickly building a growing list of admirers back in the Premier League.

What is Jude Bellingham’s transfer status?
As would be expected for such a young and exciting talent, Dortmund have absolutely no interest in selling Bellingham anytime soon.
Unlike Erling Haaland or Jadon Sancho before him, Bellingham has no release clause in his contract and has made no suggestion that he is intent on making the move to a bigger club anytime soon.
When does Jude Bellingham’s contract expire?
Jude Bellingham’s current contract at Borussia Dortmund expires on June 30, 2025.
What clubs are interested in Jude Bellingham?
Bellingham was a notable transfer target for Manchester United before he made the move to Germany and reports from England suggest the Old Trafford side wouldn’t mind a second crack at signing the midfielder.
Alongside Man Utd are Liverpool, who are in desperate need of a new midfielder following the departure of Gini Wijnaldum in the summer. Whether the Anfield side would be able to afford the kind of fee Dortmund are looking for remains to be seen.
For now, Bellingham’s list of suitors remains limited to the English giants, but it remains to be seen if Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona may join the race.
Could Jude Bellingham leave in January?
Although Bellingham is being courted by some of the biggest clubs in the world, there’s little hope of Dortmund selling their coveted midfielder in the coming weeks.
Could Jude Bellingham leave in the summer?
Although Bellingham seems perfectly content at Dortmund right now, that could quickly change if the club don’t get their act together on the pitch.
An unexpected knock out in the group stages of the Champions League could be seen as an unfortunate blip, but unless Marco Rose’s side can start putting some real consistency together, the club’s major stars like Bellingham may begin to wonder whether Dortmund is the best place to be if they want to be playing in the later stages of the continental competition.
Having said that, it seems unlikely that Dortmund would consider any offers for Bellingham in the summer. Especially if the club are expecting to sell Haaland then.
How old is Jude Bellingham?
Jude Bellingham was born on Jun 29, 2003, which makes him 18 years old.
