Manchester United join race to sign Jobe Bellingham

Manchester United is reportedly keen on signing Jude Bellingham’s brother, Jobe Bellingham, joining rivals Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Brentford in bid for the youngster.

As per reports from Standard Sport, Man United manager, Ruben Amorim is planning a summer overhaul at Old Trafford and has identified Jobe as a potential target to strengthen his midfield. The Portuguese coach is keen on offloading Casemiro, Victor Lindelof, Marcus Rashford, Antony and Christian Eriksen and may even sell Kobbie Mainoo in a bid to raise funds for summer signings.

Jobe, 19, has caught the eyes of admirers since becoming a key player for Sunderland. The Black Cats star is currently with the England Under-21 squad and so has been able to catch up with big brother Jude at St. George’s Park as the Real Madrid superstar has been included in Thomas Tuchel’s first Three Lions squad for World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.

Jobe is currently on a five-year deal which keeps him at Sunderland until 2028 and it’s not clear yet if he will be willing to make the big jump to the Premier League at the end of the season.

Nonetheless, Jobe will be looking to help the Black Cats into the English top flight, with his current side in fourth place in the Championship table.
