Liverpool reportedly lead the way in the race for Jude Bellingham, with the Englishman's value continuing to rise following a starring role for England at the World Cup.

Liverpool are reportedly leading the way in the race to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Bellingham has been a key player for England at the World Cup so far, netting his first England and World Cup goal in their opener against Iran.

The 19-year-old has had a career-best year so far, breaking Wayne Rooney's record to become the highest-scoring English teenager in Champions League history back in September, and, most recently, his assist against Senegal in the World Cup saw him become the first English teen to assist in a World Cup knockout match.

According to Marca, Liverpool are now the club most likely to land Bellingham after Real Madrid stepped back in the race for his signature.

The midfielder's World Cup performances have seen his stock rise even higher as a result and that has impacted his price tag with Borussia Dortmund now reportedly demanding upwards of £125m to sign the young star.

Liverpool had been in the market for a midfielder earlier this year following injuries sustained by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Naby Keita and Curtis Jones earlier in the summer, eventually signing Arthur Melo on a season-long loan from Juventus during the summer window.
