Manchester City are growing confident they can sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund this summer, although Real Madrid remain in contention for the midfielder’s signature, sources have told ESPN.

Apart from Silva, Ilkay Gündogan could also leave City this summer.
Gundogan will be a free agent at the end of the season unless he signs a new contract with Etihad and is linked to Barcelona.
Signing at least one midfielder is City’s priority, but the club are also considering bringing in a left-back with Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell among potential targets.
