Chelsea are reportedly set to rival the likes of Liverpool and Real Madrid for the signature of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham.

Chelsea have reportedly entered the race to sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund.

Following his arrival from Birmingham City in 2020, Bellingham has scored 13 goals and 18 assists in 100 appearances for Borussia Dortmund across all competitions.

His impressive performances have captured the interest of the biggest clubs across Europe, including Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Real Madrid.

According to The Mirror, Chelsea are also pursuing the England international after Blues owner Todd Boehly made contact with the player's agent.

Although the Blues are aware that they are trailing Real Madrid and Liverpool in the race for Bellingham's signature, they believe that a great transfer budget could help them complete the transfer.

With Bellingham's current contract set to expire in June 2025, Dortmund are believed to be looking for a £130m fee.

The midfielder is set to be involved in his club's away league meeting with FC Koln on Saturday after returning from international duty.
