Real Madrid can be more than relaxed about the future of Jude Bellingham. Despite the great interest Pep Guardiola has shown in signing the English midfielder for Manchester City, the British club already assumes that this path is completely closed. The player's desire to continue succeeding in white has been decisive in causing the 'citizens' to change direction.

Faced with the impossibility of signing Bellingham, the English team has redirected all its efforts towards another of the great talents in European football: Florian Wirtz, as reported by 'DefensaCentral'. The German international, a key player at Bayer Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso, is now City's main target to strengthen their squad this summer. They are willing to break all their economic records for him and present an offer that would amount to around 150 million euros, a figure that would make him the third most expensive signing in the history of football.

Real Madrid will not bid, but will also keep an eye on Wirtz

Real Madrid, on the other hand, has no intention of entering the bidding war. Following the significant investment made in Bellingham last summer, there is no urgency to reinforce the creative zone of the midfield, especially with a profile as offensive as that of Wirtz. However, at the white club, they do not lose track of him, aware of the talent and potential that the young German possesses.

Guardiola, despite the challenging season he is going through with City, has the confidence of the board to lead a new revolution in the squad. And in that roadmap, the name Wirtz is gaining more and more strength. Therefore, Real Madrid can focus on other fronts, knowing that their English gem will not leave the Spanish capital.
