Former Liverpool academy star Bobby Duncan has pleaded with the club to sign Jude Bellingham this summer, with the Borussia Dortmund man once again impressing for England.
Taking to Twitter, the now-21-year-old striker claimed that the Bundesliga wonderkid would be the perfect signing for the Reds, even with a reported £130m asking price, with Duncan’s claim being that Bellingham could star for Liverpool for the next 15 years.

A potential club-record signing, the 19-year-old midfielder is one of the most in-demand names in football, with Bellingham continuing to impress for both club and country as Liverpool look to make their move for the teenager this summer.
Indeed, Liverpool are ready to break the bank to land Bellingham, with Manchester City and Real Madrid all chasing the midfielder, the Reds will need to be on their toes if they’re to secure the 19-year-old’s signature, which Duncan is right to call out.
Liverpool have to listen to Duncan’s advice on signing Bellingham
Bellingham is set to become the most expensive British player of all-time this summer, and whilst Liverpool might suffer financially from meeting Dortmund’s £130m demand for the midfielder, Duncan is right that the investment would be completely worth it.
As we know, the Dortmund star is already one of the best players in the world in his position, and for what Liverpool need, a midfield sensation like Bellingham could be what Jurgen Klopp needs to get his squad back into shape to challenge for the Premier League title in the years to come.
Moreover, signing Bellingham could help Liverpool recoup much-needed funds via deep runs in the UEFA Champions League as well as from marketing and sponsorships, with the 19-year-old already one of the most well-known faces in the current footballing generation.
