Liverpool fans believe Jude Bellingham has dropped a massive hint that he’s moving to Jurgen Klopp’s side.
The 19-year-old was the star of the show as England dismantled Senegal 3-0 in their World Cup round of 16 match, to set up an epic quarter-final clash with France.
Bellingham demonstrated precisely why he is being courted by some of Europe’s biggest teams. The Borussia Dortmund star was everywhere, tactically attuned off the ball and a creative force on it.

In setting up Jordan Henderson’s opener, Bellingham became the first teenager to assist in a World Cup knockout stage game since at least 1966 - because that’s as far as Opta’s data goes for any nation.
Premier League trio Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool are all reportedly interested in signing Bellingham, while on the continent Real Madrid are said to be keen on bringing in the Birmingham-born all-action midfielder.
Fresh reports in France are also claiming that Paris Saint-Germain have entered the race for the England star. A move to the Parc des Princes would see the Bellingham link up with Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi.
Some Reds fans believe Jurgen Klopp’s side may have the upper hand in negotiations, however.
Bellingham to Liverpool?
Liverpool fans have noted the growing relationship between Liverpool stars Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and prospective signing Bellingham. Indeed, following Henderson’s opener, the Liverpool captain and Bellingham celebrated with an intense star down.

After the game, Alexander-Arnold and Henderson jokingly recreated the celebration, with a grinning Bellingham watching on.
With the bond between the trio continuing to grow, Liverpool fans are insisting on Twitter that they will beat off their rivals and sign the teenager.
In response to the post-match picture featuring the three, Reds supporter Leighcrawford38 tweeted: “He's coming to Liverpool”
Mxddlylfc is so certain of the Borrusia Dortmund star’s arrival, she added: “Make it a little less obvious now. I still like to get surprised by signings.”
