Manchester United 'will offer Jude Bellingham immediate first-team role'

Manchester United want Jude Bellingham to 'immediately challenge for a first-team place' if he arrives from Birmingham City this summer, according to a report.

Manchester United will reportedly offer Jude Bellingham the chance to 'immediately challenge for a first-team place' if they secure a deal for the Birmingham City teenager this summer.

The 16-year-old, who has scored four times and contributed three assists in 32 Championship appearances this season, continues to be strongly linked with a move to Old Trafford.

Borussia Dortmund are also believed to be in the hunt, but United are thought to have already shown the youngster around their training ground as they attempt to tie up a move.

Bellingham will not turn 17 until June 29, but according to the Evening Standard, the Red Devils plan to offer the midfielder an immediate first-team role at the club next season.

The England Under-17 international's current deal at St Andrew's will expire at the end of next season, but the Blues are still expected to earn around £30m from a sale.

United, meanwhile, are also allegedly confident of signing Lyon's Moussa Dembele this summer.
