Henry Winter blown away by ‘remarkable’ 13-assist Liverpool target after stunning individual display on international duty

The Bundesliga ace has been in scintillating form for Borussia Dortmund this term, registering 13 assists and six goals 37 appearances (across all competitions).

With the player continuing to impress domestically and abroad, we at the Empire of the Kop almost have to pinch and constantly remind ourselves that the midfielder is only 18 years of age.

If he can continue his upward trajectory in the sport, it’ll be frightening to think just how good he’ll be in five years, let alone at the absolute peak of his powers.

With our midfield needing an injection of youth, Bellingham would represent the perfect signing for the next stage of Liverpool’s evolution.

Though it just seems unlikely that we’ll pull off the deal this summer without one or more major outgoings to facilitate the cost.
