Nigel De Jong explains why Jude Bellingham won’t flop like Manchester United dud Jadon Sancho
The Metro says Nigel De Jong has dismissed suggestions that England starlet Jude Bellingham might be wary of moving to the Premier League due to the struggles of Manchester United flop Jadon Sancho.
The 19-year-old gave a composed and authoritative display in the Three Lions’ World Cup opener against Iran on Monday, opening the scoring in a 6-2 win with a brilliant header to underline why he is considered one of the brightest talents in European football.
Liverpool, Real Madrid, Chelsea, United and City are all thought to be chasing Bellingham’s signature ahead of a summer move next year, with Borussia Dortmund resigned to losing the midfielder and ready to cash in for what will likely be a Premier League record fee.
