Jude Bellingham 'agrees £22.5m Borussia Dortmund deal'

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly won the race for Birmingham City teenager Jude Bellingham.

The 17-year-old's future has been the subject of much speculation in recent months, with Manchester United thought to be desperate to bring him to Old Trafford.

The Red Devils are believed to have shown the midfielder around their training ground earlier this year, which included a meet with Sir Alex Ferguson, as the club attempted to convince him to turn down interest from Germany to join the 20-time English champions.

Dortmund have also been consistency linked with the youngster, though, and according to Bild, BVB have now won the race to sign him in a €25m (£22.5m) deal.

The report claims that Bellingham has penned a five-year contract at Signal Iduna Park and will earn approximately €3m (£2.7m) a year in wages.

The England Under-17 international has been in excellent form for his Championship club this season, contributing four goals and two assists in 41 appearances in all competitions.



Arsenal leading the race for Marc Roca?

Arsenal are reportedly in a strong position to sign Espanyol midfielder Marc Roca this summer.

The 23-year-old is expected to leave his Catalan club ahead of the 2020-21 campaign following their relegation to the second tier of Spanish football.

A number of clubs, including Bayern Munich, have been credited with an interest in the former Spain Under-21 international, who is thought to have a €40m (£35.8m) release clause in his current deal at the RCDE Stadium.

However, according to La Razon, Arsenal are leading the race to sign the central midfielder during this summer's transfer window.

Roca has scored twice and provided one assist in 33 La Liga appearances this season but his efforts have not been enough to prevent Espanyol from dropping into the Segunda Division.

Everton are also believed to be considering an approach in the upcoming market.
