• Real Madrid and Liverpool are frontrunners to sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund

• Effenberg used Jadon Sancho as an example of a player who suffered after moving away

Jude Bellingham's footballing future is still up in the air.

The Borussia Dortmund youngster has been linked with a move away from the German side, with Real Madrid and Liverpool the frontrunners for his signature.

Dortmund are also keen to keep hold of their star player, and a club legend believes that it is in Bellingham's best interests to remain with the side for another season.

As noted by BVB Buzz, Stefan Effenberg believes the young star would be better off staying with the Bundesliga side.

“I would advise Bellingham to stay in Dortmund; he is still young and can still sign three of four top contracts in the future," he said.

He believes that, unlike Haaland, Bellingham has a stronger connection with the club and receives more trust and support from them.

In advising the star to stay in Germany, Effenberg used the example of Jadon Sancho.

"I hope for his own development that he decides to stay. And there is no guarantee elsewhere either. Sancho is the best example of this.”

Sancho was one of Dortmund's many talented youngsters who was tipped to have a bright future ahead of him. He scored 50 goals in 137 games for the German side but has only scored 10 goals in 61 appearances for the English side, Transfermarkt reported.

The Red Devils man has failed to live up to the hype after moving, and Effenberg is worried Bellingham could end up the same way.
