# Liverpool: Sky journalist shares Jude Bellingham transfer plan

**[Liverpool](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/) have identified Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham as their priority target next summer, according to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth.**

### The Lowdown: Reds eye move…

The [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) giants are reliably believed to be [chasing](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/liverpool-fc-news/liverpool-reporter-shares-promising-bellingham-transfer-news/) Bellingham as one of a number of transfer options heading into 2023.

Argentina star Enzo Fernandez is said to have reached a [pre-transfer agreement](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/liverpool-reach-transfer-pre-agreement-enzo-fernandez) with Jurgen Klopp’s side, for instance, with the Anfield outfit now seriously attempting to back their manager on the field.

Bellingham, though, has been more heavily linked with a move to Merseyside in recent months as the 6 foot 1 midfielder dazzles for both England and Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund.

### The Latest: Sheth reveals Liverpool stance on Bellingham…

Speaking to [GIVEMESPORT,](https://www.givemesport.com/88093784-liverpool-transfer-news-star-now-klopp-number-one-target-anfield) Sky journalist Sheth claims the Reds and owners FSG have identified the 19-year-old as their number one target heading into the summer.

He also says their delay in signing a midfielder could be down to waiting for Bellingham to become available in the new year.

Sheth explained:\
*\
“It’s clear he is the number one target for Liverpool.*

*“Remember, in the summer, they did want to bring in a midfielder but they decided to go short-term first of all and brought in Arthur Melo, maybe with one eye on next summer when Jude Bellingham potentially could be available.”*

### The Verdict: Tough move…

Bellingham’s sensational form in Germany, not to mention impressive cameos in the World Cup, have only raised his price tag and increased the queue of clubs seriously considering a move.

That being said, the dynamic and energetic midfielder would seriously upgrade Klopp’s options in the middle of the park, especially since he has been called a ‘[monster](https://twitter.com/curtiswoodhous8/status/1599491255871934464)‘ by members of the media.

If Liverpool pull this move off, Bellingham would undoubtedly excite supporters.
