Liverpool look likely to be busy during this summer’s transfer window following what has already been an underwhelming campaign. 

Last season The Reds reached the finals of both domestic cups and the Champions League, and were also in contention to lift the Premier League title, but this season has not gone to plan.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have already been knocked out of all three cup competitions, and face an uphill battle to secure a place in the top four of the Premier League.

One player that Liverpool are expected to make a move for this summer is Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham, and it appears that the club have a plan in place to lure the player to Anfield.

According to Football Insider, The Reds are hopeful that Bellingham’s friendship with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson can tempt him to join the pair on Merseyside.

The trio are all regulars for England and it is claimed that the current Liverpool duo have discussed a move to Anfield with Bellingham, who is set to be the subject of interest from several clubs this summer.

Liverpool hope that Henderson will be able to persuade his international teammate to join the club

The likes of Manchester City, Chelsea and Real Madrid have also been linked with a move for the Englishman, who has been in sensational form for Dortmund over the past two seasons.

Bellingham, 19, joined the German side from Birmingham City back in 2020 and has since established himself as one of the best central midfielders in Europe.

The teenager has already made more than 120 appearances for Dortmund, captaining the club on a number of occasions.

Liverpool are said to have given Henderson and Alexander-Arnold the green light to reach out to their England international teammate.

The player’s current contract is set to run until 2025 and Dortmund have opened talks over an extension, although the player’s future remains very much uncertain.

The Reds are expected to overhaul their midfield this summer, with the likes of Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain likely to leave when their contracts expire.
