Real Madrid scouts eyeing Jobe Bellingham, Leroy Sane's decision looms, Chelsea's contract conundrum, Sergi Roberto's MLS temptation

Posted : 17 October 2023

In the world of football, Real Madrid's scouting network has cast a watchful eye on the burgeoning talent of Jobe Bellingham, the younger brother of Jude Bellingham. Jobe recently made a move from Birmingham City to Sunderland, where he has been making waves with impressive performances in the Championship under the guidance of manager Tony Mowbray.

Real Madrid's interest in the Bellingham family's footballing legacy was confirmed when they dispatched scouts to observe Jobe's skills in action during the England under-19s international matches. It appears that Real Madrid's President, Florentino Perez, is eager to secure a deal for the promising player, adding another Bellingham to their roster after Jude's successful transition from Borussia Dortmund in the summer.

Meanwhile, the enigmatic future of Leroy Sane at Bayern Munich remains a hot topic, with rumors swirling about a potential move to Liverpool. Reports suggest that Sane is a prime candidate to fill the shoes of Mohamed Salah at Liverpool, which would make him their most expensive signing to date.

The German winger has openly expressed his admiration for working with Jurgen Klopp, and it's clear that a "fundamental decision" about his future is on the horizon. While Bayern Munich has yet to initiate discussions about extending Sane's contract, the player's contract situation has piqued the interest of football enthusiasts around the world.

In the world of transfer deals, Chelsea could be facing a situation where they lose the promising defender, Ian Maatsen, for free next summer. This comes on the heels of a failed £32 million deal with Burnley, which the club surprisingly accepted but was declined by Maatsen himself.

Barcelona has now emerged as a potential destination for the young Dutchman, with manager Xavi Hernandez set to make a final decision in January. Maatsen's contract expiration next summer aligns with the uncertainty surrounding Marcos Alonso's future, making a move to Barcelona an attractive prospect for the talented defender.

And on the other side of the Atlantic, Sergi Roberto, the Barcelona captain, might follow in the footsteps of former teammates Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba by considering a move to Major League Soccer (MLS). With limited playing time this season, Roberto is exploring the possibility of leaving Barcelona when his current contract concludes.

Reports suggest that Roberto has sought advice from Messi, Busquets, and Alba, all of whom have had positive experiences in MLS. His affinity for New York and his frequent visits to the city further fuel speculation about a potential move to one of the New York-based MLS teams.
