Premier League giants Manchester United are reportedly on the verge of agreeing on a salary package for highly-rated Birmingham City midfielder Jude Bellingham.

According to the Daily Star, the young player will see his weekly wages increase exponentially if he decides to join the Red Devils this summer.

Earlier reports had claimed that Manchester United are in pole position to sign the 16-year-old midfielder in a £30m deal and that the likes of Premier League rivals Chelsea and German Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund are also keen to sign the teenage player.

Jude Bellingham was recently given the tour of Old Trafford earlier this month and the player also met with legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson and present boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on his visit of the club.

He earns around £150m at English Championship club Birmingham City who are trying to win promotion to the top tier of English football via the playoffs at least. Jude Bellingham won’t sign a professional deal at any club until he turns 17.

Manchester United are ready to multiply his weekly wages by 666 times to £100,000 when he becomes their player.

Jude Bellingham is one of the young English players at the moment and he burst onto the scene at the start of this season which has been on hold for one week due to the presence of the dreaded Coronavirus. The player has scored four goals plus three assists in 32 matches for his midlands club.

Jude Bellingham will almost certainly join the Manchester United youth team it he was to make the move from Birmingham City to the Red Devils in the summer. He has a lot of people ahead of him on the midfield queue at Old Trafford especially Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba, Fred, Scott McTominay, Nemanja Matic, Juan Manuel Mata and many more.
