Man Utd snubbed by Jude Bellingham after botched presentation involving John Murtough
Manchester United could have had him on their books if it wasn’t for John Murtough.The English central midfielder signed for Borussia Dortmund from Birmingham City in 2020, though it was not only the Bundesliga outfit interested in the central midfielder.According to The Athletic, United did have the opportunity to persuade the now-England international to sign for them but were – obviously – unsuccessful.They presented to Bellingham how they envisioned his career panning out and his pathway into becoming a first-team regular.However, the report goes on to state that some feel that Murtough ‘could have made a more compelling case for first-team minutes’, suggesting that the director of football seemed uncertain as to whether Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would utilise Bellingham frequently.But it was certainly an opportunity wasted for the Red Devils as Bellingham, at just 18 years old, has already established himself as one of the best midfielders in the world that will only improve as he develops.United are thought to still be keen to sign the exciting young prospect, though it will cost them over £100million according to Bild – four times more than what the Old Trafford outfit would have paid in 2020.Liverpool are thought to be keeping tabs on Bellingham amongst other top European sides, but ex-Premier League striker Gabriel Agbonlahor believes that the playmaker will remain at the Signal Iduna Park this summer despite the interest.HAVE YOUR SAY! Will Manchester United sign Jude Bellingham in the summer? Comment below.The former Aston Villa star said: “I don’t think Jude Bellingham will leave yet.
