‘He’s fabulous..” – Pundit stunned by player Manchester City are now eyeing for 2023

Manchester City transfer target Jude Bellingham has been hailed by Graeme Souness in the wake of his performances for England at the World Cup.

Bellingham has, unsurprisingly, been one of the stars of the World Cup so far. The 19-year-old got England’s campaign off and running with a brilliant header in their win over Iran in their opening game.

And he was the star of the show against Senegal on Sunday. Bellingham set up one goal for Jordan Henderson and he also played an important role in England’s second, driving up the pitch from just outside his own area.

It was an ‘unbelievably good‘ display from the teenager. But it will not have come as a shock to many, with Bellingham achieving so much in his career before he has even turned 20.

After the starlet’s impressive display last time out, Souness was quick to heap praise on the Man City target and also believes that potential big move will come in 2023, saying (via Manchester Evening News):

“I think he’s fabulous and destined to be a star, unless he gets a big head on those shoulders or he gets a bad injury.

“He’ll be getting a very good education where he is currently, and I’d imagine next year he’ll leave Dortmund.”

He is all set to spark a major bidding war in the summer of 2023, with many top clubs including Real Madrid, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea vying for his signature from Borussia Dortmund.

Guardiola has previously described the midfield maestro as the “complete package“, so it is no wonder that he wants to bring him to the Premier League in the near future.
