Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Jude Bellingham from Real Madrid. According to Defensa Central, Pep Guardiola still wants the English midfielder and sees him as a long-term replacement for Kevin De Bruyne.
De Bruyne has struggled with injuries, and City are considering his future. Reports suggest he could leave for Major League Soccer, making Bellingham a key target for Guardiola.
Guardiola has admired Bellingham for years. “He’s an exceptional player,” he once said when City faced Borussia Dortmund. However, signing him from Real Madrid would be extremely difficult.
Real Madrid have no plans to sell Bellingham. The midfielder is happy at the club and has become a crucial part of Carlo Ancelotti’s squad. Madrid see him as a key figure for the future.
