JUST IN: Borussia Dortmund likely to do the Bellingham Brothers double after HIGH interest on 19yr Old Sunderland starlet.
Borussia Dortmund are reportedly keeping a close eye on Jobe Bellingham’s progress and have identified the talented midfielder as a potential target.
Four years after signing his older brother Jude Bellingham, the German club is now said to be considering a move for 19-year-old Jobe. According to *Sky Sport*, Dortmund are in contact with the Sunderland player and are monitoring his development.
The highly-rated attacking midfielder recently signed a contract extension with Sunderland, keeping him tied to the club for another four years. His transfer fee is estimated to be around €25 million, and several top clubs are reportedly interested in his services. However, the report states that Dortmund’s interest has not yet advanced to a concrete stage.
**Jobe Bellingham on Dortmund’s radar**
Jude Bellingham made the move from Birmingham City to Borussia Dortmund in 2020, where he became one of the best midfielders in the world before transferring to Real Madrid in a high-profile deal last year.
Jobe, like his brother, is primarily an attacking midfielder but is also adept at playing as a number eight or in a defensive midfield role. To date, he has made 60 appearances for Sunderland, scoring nine goals and providing two assists. He also recently debuted for England’s U-21 national team.
With Dortmund likely to restructure their midfield next summer, Jobe Bellingham could become a key target for the club. It remains to be seen whether he will follow in his brother’s footsteps and make the move to the Bundesliga giants in the near future.
