Real Madrid make Bellingham most expensive British player with £115m deal

England midfielder Jude Bellingham is now the most expensive British footballer ever after Real Madrid agreed a £115 million deal with Borussia Dortmund for him.

The two clubs have struck an agreement for an initial fee for the 19-year-old.

But add-ons could take it well above the £115 million mark.

Dortmund have revealed that Bellingham will sign a six-year deal at the Bernabeu in their statement.

Regarding the add-ons, the club statement reads: "Such variable transfer fees are dependent on the achievement of certain sporting successes by Real Madrid and/or sporting successes or performances of the player at Real Madrid in the period of the next six seasons."

Bellingham was linked with a move back to the UK, with Liverpool and Manchester City competing for him, but will now continue his career in Spain.
