      But Carlo Ancelotti’s Real have become increasingly confident that, after courting him throughout 2022, Bellingham, 19, will snub a Premier League move and make a big switch to Spain next summer.
      Liverpool are desperate to sign him, with manager Jurgen Klopp believing that Borussia Dortmund ace Bellingham — who enjoyed a fine World Cup with England — will soon become the world’s best midfielder.
      In Qatar, both Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson told the player about the merits of featuring for the Reds.
      City feel they are not out of the race and are expected to up their bid to land Bellingham, who moved from Birmingham to Dortmund for £30m in the summer of 2020.

      But Ancelotti and Real feel the chance to become a Bernabeu icon will seal the deal.
      All of the clubs, even those with limitless pots of cash such as City and PSG, have been made aware that wages are not important for Bellingham — only how a move would benefit him football-wise.
      As SunSport revealed last week, United boss Erik ten Hag is planning a £200m double whammy to land Bellingham and Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong.
      Ten Hag’s problem is Bellingham turned down United to join Dortmund.

      Club legends Sir Alex Ferguson, Eric Cantona and Bryan Robson were all sent to meet the player but failed to persuade him to move to Old Trafford.
      Since joining the German giants, Bellingham has contributed 19 goals and 21 assists in 112 games.
      He was also handed the club captaincy earlier this season, before thriving with England in Qatar.

      Isco ‘RIPS UP Sevilla contract after just four disastrous months with ex-Real Madrid star on hunt for new club’

      ISCO is set to leave Sevilla only four months after signing for the club, dramatic reports suggests. The midfielder had been trying to find his feet at a new club after a difficult few years at Real Madrid.

      But his move to Sevilla has not gone to plan and the six-times Europa League winners find themselves in the relegation zone after 14 games.
      The manager Julen Lopetegui, who is believed to have been a close ally of Isco, was sacked in October after the club’s poor start to the season.
      And now the 30-year-old could himself be on the way out, according to Marca.
      Despite signing a two-year contract as recently as August, the star could reportedly rip up his contract after a breakdown in relationship with senior club figures.

      The Spanish publication report he is in “open conflict” with director of football Monchi.
      They reported last month: “Tension is palpable in each training. And Isco let Monchi know that he was at Sevilla at Lopetegui’s request, not because Monchi himself wanted his signing.”
      It represents a big challenge to current Sevilla boss Jorge Sampaoli who is looking to stop the club being relegated for the first time since 1997.
      Isco had been a regular starter in the team and appeared in 12 of their 14 league games.

      But he only has two assists to show for his efforts domestically.
      His only Sevilla goal came in 3-0 Champions League win over FC Copenhagen.
      Isco’s potential departure could catch the interest of several Premier League clubs.
      Arsenal and Tottenham are among those who have been linked to the former Real Madrid man, who at his height was viewed as among Europe’s best playmakers.
      Lopetegui, now boss at Wolves, may also fancy a reunion with the no.10 at Molineux. The Spanish manager is believed to want several new faces at the club. More

      He headed to the World Cup as a free agent and was a part of the Portugal squad that exited the tournament in the quarter-finals following a 1-0 defeat to Morocco.
      Now Ronaldo has returned to Europe without a club and is training with former side Real Madrid in a bid to keep his fitness up.
      He first trained with Los Blancos on Wednesday as speculation over a stunning comeback began.
      And those links rumbled on when he arrived in a Mercedes for Real training yet again on Thursday.

      Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano posted a clip on social media of Ronaldo turning up.
      And he added: “Cristiano Ronaldo had training session at Real Madrid center Valdebebas also today. He’s allowed to train on separate pitch.”

      Since leaving Man Utd, Ronaldo has been linked with a mega-money move to Al Nassr.
      It’s believed the forward will be offered a staggering £173million a year to complete a free move to Saudi Arabia.
      Meanwhile, Ronaldo is NOT expected to retire from international duty after Portugal’s World Cup heartache.
      The ex-Sporting Lisbon star was spotted in tears in the tunnel following the gut-wrenching defeat to Morocco.
      But CM Journal claims Ronaldo has already informed Portugal chiefs he intends to continue playing for his country.
      And that puts him in contention to lead his nation at Euro 2024 in 18 months time.
      Ronaldo found himself on the bench in the latter stages of the World Cup, replaced by Goncalo Ramos – who scored a hat-trick in the 6-1 mauling of Switzerland.
      He was subbed on in both Portugal’s last 16 clash with Switzerland and quarter-final against Morocco – but was unable to end his career-long knockout stage goal drought. More
