Reports: Jobe Bellingham Joins Bundesliga in Club’s Second-Biggest Deal

Bundesliga News

Another Bellingham is reportedly heading to the Bundesliga. Following his brother Jude`s departure from Borussia Dortmund to win trophies with Real Madrid, Jobe Bellingham is now also expected to move to Germany`s top football league.

He is set to join the `Black and Yellows,` just like his older sibling. This suggests Dortmund has successfully competed against Eintracht Frankfurt for his signature, as the Frankfurt club was also reportedly interested in the player.

According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Borussia Dortmund (BVB) has finalized an agreement with Sunderland. Romano announced the news with his well-known `Here we go.` Sky Sports is also said to have confirmed the details of the agreement.

Given that Jobe Bellingham`s contract with Sunderland was scheduled to run until 2028, a substantial transfer fee is anticipated. Media sources indicate that Sunderland is demanding a fee of €33 million upfront, potentially rising with performance-related bonuses. If this fee is confirmed, it would position Jobe as Dortmund`s second-most expensive signing ever, surpassed only by Ousmane Dembélé, who joined for €35 million.
