BORUSSIA DORTMUND star Jude Bellingham has rejected approaches from two European giants ahead of the summer transfer window, according to reports.
The 19-year-old is high on many top side’s wishlists with the player currently weighing up his options.
Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have both supposedly seen early moves knocked back by the midfielder himself.
Bellingham appears to be against joining either of those two amid interest from the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool, Manchester United and Real Madrid.
Outlet Sport1 claim that Dortmund will try to convince him to stay rather than accept he could go for a fee likely to be well above £100million.
They want to make him their highest earner and hand him a staggering £13.3million yearly wage.

However, the grounded wonderkid will supposedly not be swayed by money and will make a decision on his future purely on where he wants to play.
Liverpool were leading the race for him but their current woes could lead to them missing out on a deal.
Meanwhile, The Athletic have reported that Real Madrid scout Juni Calafat has been “taking care of relations” with Bellingham’s father, Mark, who manages his son’s career.
Yet Los Blancos could find it tough to compete with the financial strength of Premier League teams.
