A great transfer with plenty of present, but also an even bigger future, completed the Real Madridacquiring him Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund for the amount of 103 million euros!
Reasons to smile about this great transfer of the 19-year-old midfielder to the “merenches” of course also have Birmingham!
And this is because the sale of the English international from Dortmund will fill the coffers of the club and will give him a deep financial “breath” in the battle he is giving to Championship!
You see, Bellingham, who maintains an excellent relationship with Birmingham’s management and fans, comes from the “guts” of the club. In the summer of 2020, Dortmund spent the amount of 30 million euros to acquire him, with the British club putting a special clause on a possible new sale.
Somehow, then, Birmingham is expected from… nowhere to put in its coffers the amount of 11.5 million euros from the transfer of the young midfielder to Real!
For the record, Bellingham recorded 44 appearances with 4 goals in his only season in Birmingham’s first team in 2020.
