What happened. Jude Bellingham is moving closer to extending his stay at Real Madrid, with the club working to secure him for even longer. This development has dealt a major blow to Manchester City's hopes of tempting him back to England.

• Bellingham has become a central figure at the Bernabéu since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2023.
• The 23-year-old has no desire to leave Real Madrid despite links to Manchester City.
• Madrid are actively working on a renewal to keep him beyond his current contract.

If Bellingham signs a new deal, Manchester City will likely need to look elsewhere for midfield reinforcements.
