Real Madrid have taken a huge step towards signing Jude Bellingham by reaching an agreement with Borussia Dortmund.
talkSPORT understands the midfielder is set to sign for Los Blancos in a deal worth £86million plus add-ons, with the teenager set for his second move since he left Birmingham City in 2020.
The 19-year-old's fee is also set to benefit the Blues, who will earn five per cent of everything over £20million, which equals a £3.3million windfall.
The Dortmund star is set to undergo a medical with the LaLiga club in the next few days and while the deal is not confirmed, it is now expected to be a formality.
The 19-year-old's father, Mark, met with Real Madrid officials at the start of May as they delivered their pitch to sign one of the most exciting talents in world football.
The result of that meeting led Real Madrid to be convinced they would complete a deal for him.
Los Blancos have also set their sights on Bellingham's England teammate Harry Kane, with Carlo Ancelotti making it clear he wants the striker.
