This is why Jude Bellingham refuses to sign Man Utd

September 14, 2023
Jude Bellingham refused to sign for Manchester United three years ago:

On Tuesday, the 20-year-old was the star of the match as England beat Scotland 3-1 in a friendly to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the first meeting between the two sides.

Bellingham contributed to England's first goal scored by Phil Foden before scoring the second goal after a foul by Scotland captain Andrew Robertson.

Of course, the talent of this young player is really great. Bellingham has been linked with moves to Liverpool, Manchester City, United and Paris Saint-Germain this summer as he looks to leave Borussia Dortmund. Of course, according to the Mirror, Bellingham also had a tour of Old Trafford as he and his family spoke with then-Ole Gunnar Solskjaer manager and chief transfer negotiator Matt Judge.

However, Bellingham later admitted that he turned down United as he believed Dortmund were the best team in Europe to develop young players' talents.
Bellingham said at the time:

"I just think the way Dortmund incorporates young players into the first team is at a higher level. There is no club in Europe that acts like them. The way they push and can also be pulled back.

Man United have a great team. And my decision is not about money. "And I am very focused and happy with the interest from Dortmund, which has become my first choice."
