SHOCKING NEWS:Luke Terry O’Nien confirm the departure of Jobe Bellingham…
Borussia Dortmund are increasingly confident of signing Sunderland sensation Jobe Bellingham, sources have told Football Insider.
Bellingham, 19, is believed to be keen to follow brother Jude in making the move from the English Championship to the Bundesliga giants.
Dortmund’s UK scout Daniel Dodds is keeping close tabs on the young midfielder, who is thriving at the Stadium of Light.
Sources say Sunderland are likely to cash in on the versatile midfielder, whose stock has risen this season after a string of impressive performances for the promotion chasers.
Bellingham has notched two goals and one assist in 13 Championship games this term with Regis Le Bris’ side joint-top of the second tier.

The Black Cats are in a strong position with the midfielder under contract at the Stadium of Light until June 2028 after signing an extension in the off-season.
He only joined Sunderland from Birmingham in 2023 and the Black Cats stand to make a huge profit on the 19-year-old.
The Stourbridge-born ace has recently been called up to England’s Under-21 side for the first time.
Bellingham made 47 appearances across all competitions in the 2023-24 campaign, scoring seven goals and notching one assist.
His brother Jude made 132 appearances for Dortmund between 2020 and 2023, scoring 24 goals before securing a huge-money move to Real Madrid last year.
