“Real Madrid Completes Biggest Transfer of the Summer: Jude Bellingham Signs for €100m+”.

It has been certain for some time that Jude Bellingham will leave Borussia Dortmund at the end of this season and will not accept the offer of a new contract. The Englishman was one of the biggest stars in the Bundesliga and BVB began to prepare for his departure by intensifying their bid for Edson Alvarez from Ajax Amsterdam. In the race for this transfer, only two clubs mattered: Manchester City (tempting not only with great money, but also with the possibility of further cooperation with Erling Haaland) and Real Madrid. We got to know the final choice of Bellingham.

“Here we go”. Real Madryt dopina transfer Jude’a Bellinghama

The Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano gave the famous “here we go”, so everything is clear now. Jude Bellingham will become a Real Madrid player, and Borussia Dortmund will earn €100m plus bonuses for him, with five percent of that amount going to the midfielder’s former club, Birmingham City. The Englishman is set to sign a six-year contract, valid until the end of June 2029, in accordance with the agreement reached in April. Romano adds that Real Madrid have already booked medical tests, which will take place in the coming days. The transfer has already been confirmed by Borussia Dortmund in a statement.

Such a big transfer means that Bellingham will be one of the most expensive players in the history of Real Madrid. Eden Hazard is the highest-paid player to date, leaving Chelsea for €115m. In second place is Gareth Bale, who left Tottenham for Real Madrid for 101 million euros. Bellingham will therefore be in third place on this list. “Bild” reported some time ago that the total amount of bonuses in the transfer of Bellingham is 20 million euros.

Thus, Real Madrid, relatively quickly, achieves its priority goal for the summer transfer window. Now the club can focus on finding a replacement for Karim Benzema, who has accepted a multimillion-dollar bid from Al-Ittihad. It is possible that Real will opt for Bellingham’s compatriot Harry Kane from Tottenham, whose contract is valid only until the end of next season. The initial offer for Kane was supposed to be around 80 million euros.

Jude Bellingham joined Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2020 for €25m from Birmingham City. During that time, he won the German Cup and made over 130 appearances in all competitions, scoring 24 goals and providing 25 assists.
