Borussia Dortmund is keeping an eye on Jobe Bellingham, younger brother of Jude, and has decided to intensify its efforts to sign him. According to recent reports, the German club has increased its initial offer for the Sunderland player, willing to reach 24 million euros to close the deal. This amount reflects Dortmund's commitment to replicate the formula that worked so well with Jude Bellingham.
In 2020, the elder Bellingham arrived at Signal Iduna Park as a young prospect and quickly became a world-class star. His development was so impressive that three years later, Real Madrid paid 113 million euros to acquire him. Now, the Germans seek to apply that experience with 19-year-old Jobe, who has shown significant progress at Sunderland, playing 60 official matches, scoring 9 goals, and providing 2 assists.
Borussia Dortmund is convinced it can repeat history
As suggested by 'The Sun,' while the German club acknowledges that Jobe's potential may not be as explosive as his older brother's, they trust that Dortmund's development environment will be key to maximizing his talent. The connection with the Bellingham family remains strong, a bond that the scouting director, Sebastian Krug, deems essential to facilitate a potential transfer.
Competition for the young midfielder also involves major Premier League clubs, which could complicate the operation. Nevertheless, Dortmund is confident that they can replicate past success.
