Manchester United are reportedly still weighing up whether to make a move for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham next summer.
It is believed the Red Devils are currently torn between making another offer for Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong or waiting until the end of the season to challenge rivals for Bellingham.
Supporters on Twitter are very much split on whether United should be actively pursuing the England international. Some feel Erik ten Hag’s side will have to finish in the top four to be in with a chance of signing him, while others are hesitant about recruiting another player from the Bundesliga:

If we qualify in the CL and ETH is strong (selling all the rest of rubbish we have) and if Real Madrid or city are not in for him then yes 100%

It’s a difficult one to judge. Bellingham is likely to cost in excess of £100m, and there will be a lot of competition for his signature from the likes of Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool.
He is, though, a very talented young player who could hold down a place in United’s midfield for a number of years. We shall have to wait and see how this transfer story unfolds.
