Dortmund eyeing to repeat Bellingham formula with Jobe

Jobe Bellingham may soon follow in his brother's footsteps. The fact is that the current Sunderland player - Championship leader - is on the radar of Borussia Dortmund, the team in which Jude shone before making the leap to Madrid, as reported by ‘The Sun’.

The source says that the German side, who have been tracking him for some time, had planned to send several scouts to Preston on Wednesday to watch him in action. In the end, the club had to change their plans after learning that the player received a three-match ban for his sending-off against Queens Park Rangers.

The young English playmaker is keen on a move to Borussia Dortmund, as he wants to make the same mark as his brother at the German club. For the time being, Sunderland have set a price tag of 20 million euros, an amount they are more than willing to pay to have another Bellingham player in their ranks.

Three months into the 2024-25 season and Jobe has 2 goals and 1 assist in 13 games. In the 2023-24 campaign, his first with the Black Cats, the Briton played 47 games, scoring 7 goals and assisting 1. His performances are not going unnoticed and sooner rather than later he could make the jump to one of the main European leagues.

The youngest of the Bellingham family still has one more game of suspension. Régis Le Bris will not be able to count on him for the game against Millwall and he is expected to return against West Bromwich Albion. Borussia are ready to make their next move.
