Personal terms have been agreed – Chelsea fans to see £132M target make monster move
According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid are all set to beat CHELSEA to the signature of Jude Bellingham.
Pochettino will be Chelsea’s fourth manager in a year, with new co-owner Todd Boehly already axing Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter, before naming Frank Lampard on an interim basis.
Lampard is expected to finish the season with Chelsea while the final touches are put to the Pochettino deal – but it seems that the Argentine boss already has players that he wants to bring to the club.
Recent reports have claimed that Pochettino would like to add another number six to the side – especially with Ngolo Kante expected to leave the club in the summer.
The Frenchman is out of contract at Stamford Bridge – and although he would like to stay at the club – it is believed that the new Chelsea board do not want to pay his massive wages and would allow him to depart.
However – Bellingham is now seemingly on his way to Madrid after the Spaniards opened talks with Borussia Dortmund about a possible deal at the end of the current seasons.
Now – Romano has claimed that Bellingham has now agreed personal terms with Madrid and a fee is all that is left.
Writing on Twitter, Romano said: “Real Madrid are prepared to meet BVB to negotiate the fee for Jude Bellingham deal — it will include add-ons.
“New meeting in May, Real Madrid want to respect BVB being in the title race. Real have agreed personal terms with Bellingham’s camp, as called this week.”
