Borussia Dortmund are reportedly close to sealing a deal for Birmingham City youngster Jude Bellingham.

The 16-year-old has been linked with a number of top sides following his performances in the Championship this season, where he has registered four goals and three assists in 32 appearances.

According to Bild, Dortmund's talks over Bellingham had progressed quickly prior to the coronavirus suspension, and Lucien Favre's side are supposedly set to beat the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United in the race for the midfielder.

The Red Devils were said to be the frontrunners for the teenager, but the report claims that Dortmund are only missing Bellingham's signature for the transfer to be confirmed.

The youngster has registered two goals in three appearances for the England Under-17 side.
