Real Madrid has finalized a deal to sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund for £88.5m, plus an additional £27m in add-ons. The 19-year-old England midfielder will undergo medical tests before signing a six-year contract with the Spanish club. The deal was signed after discussions in April, and it is expected to be announced by the club this week. Bellingham joined Dortmund in 2020 from Birmingham and quickly became one of the world’s most sought-after players. Bellingham’s arrival at the Spanish club continues his rise to fame, having debuted at the age of 16 for Birmingham in August 2019, becoming the youngest player to appear for their men’s team.
