Real Madrid will ‘make a move for Jude Bellingham in 2024 as they’re unwilling to make a big-money offer this summer’, with the Spanish giants unconvinced of a ‘need to reduce the minutes of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric’
Real Madrid are willing to offer Jude Bellingham a more lucrative wage packet to join the Spanish giants in 2024, with Los Blancos thought to be unwilling to make a big-money move this summer.
Bellingham remains a target for Real but the club remained unconvinced of a need to reduce the game time of either Luka Modric or Toni Kroos in the side.

The Spanish giants, according to Diario AS, are not thought to be keen on forking out a hefty sum this summer, with many predicting that a move for Bellingham will result in a record-breaking bid.

However, the report claims that Carlo Ancelotti’s side would be willing to offer him a more financially lucrative wage if he should decide to remain in the Bundesliga for a year longer.
And the player himself has claimed that he is not actively looking to move away from the German side, who have ‘done loads’ for Bellingham.
