The BvB lead the Bundesliga by two points from Bayern Munich ahead of Saturday's final matchday. Dortmund (1st) host Mainz (9th), while Bayern Munich (2nd) travel to Cologne (10th). So, barring an unlikely twist at this stage, Jude Bellingham is set to leave the Marsupials this summer.
Bellingham's transfer figures to Real Madrid
In terms of transfer figures, Marca, Fabrizio Romano and SportBild all agree on a figure of 100 million euros, plus bonuses, the exact amount of which has yet to be revealed. Jude Bellingham, 19, is due to sign a six-year contract with Real Madrid until June 2029, with a salary that will increase season by season.
With Jude Bellingham (19), Eduardo Camavinga (20), Aurélien Tchouaméni (23) and Federico Valverde (24), Real Madrid will have a top-quality midfield set to last, not forgetting Luka Modric (37) and Toni Kroos (33), who will still be here next season and can continue to contribute their experience and talent.
