MANCHESTER UNITED have been quoted £103million by Borussia Dortmund for Jude Bellingham next summer, according to reports.
Liverpool are also interested in the England ace, 19.
Elsewhere, Tyrell Malacia is moving closer to becoming United's first signing of the summer.
The Red Devils have hijacked the Dutch left-back's transfer to Lyon, have personal terms agreed and are set to complete a first capture of the off-season.
United have also agreed a £74 million deal for top target Frenkie de Jong, according to reports.
The Red Devils had been in a stand-off with Barcelona over a final fee for the Dutch midfielder, but they have made a breakthrough.
And reports suggest that Manchester United have NO plans to sell Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo this summer.

Lindelof's new tatt
Man United star Victor Lindelof has shown off his incredible new back tattoo while on holiday.
The Swede often shows off his arm sleeves while wearing Man Utd’s colours on the football pitch.
And he has now added an incredibly detailed back tattoo to his collection.
Lindelof‘s back piece features Roman sculptures having crowns placed on their heads by an emperor-type figure, with detailed globes on either shoulder blade.
On the centre-back’s left shoulder blade, it shows the continents of Asia, Africa and Oceania.
And on the right is the North and South Pacific sea, with North and South America.

Henderson set for Forest move
Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper expects to tie the knot with Dean Henderson next week – once the Manchester United goalie returns from his honeymoon.
Henderson married his girlfriend in Rome last weekend and is currently enjoying the second week of his honeymoon break.
The 25-year-old keeper is expected to return to England this weekend and will then undergo a Forest medical as he closes in on a year-long loan deal with the Premier League newcomers.
Henderson should put pen to paper on the deal early next week before heading for Alicante with his new Forest team-mates for their pre-season training camp in Spain.

Italian publication Calciomercato claim Liverpool are hatching a plan to swap Adrien Rabiot and Naby Keita, who are both 27 with 12 months remaining on their current deals.
There's a large jump to Europa League duo Manchester United and Arsenal, who are locked together at 20/1.

Eye of the Hag-er
Erik Ten Hag is close to making Tyrell Malacia his first signing as Manchester United boss and he has liked the defender for some time.
United are reportedly set to hijack Lyon's move for the Feyenoord star in a £14m deal.
And Ten Hag knows a lot about the left-back from his time as Ajax manager – when he first set eyes on the youngster.
Footage has emerged from a match between Feyenoord and Ajax when Malacia certainly caught the eye.
Ten Hag is seen saying in Dutch: "That kid at left-back is amazing."
He also tells his assistant Michael Reiziger to take note of Malacia, possibly with a view to signing him in the future.

Lang jump
Anthony Elanga was inches away from breaking a world record in pre-season training.
The 20-year-old made a 63 inch box jump – just four short of the world record.
The winger recorded a new personal best, just a tad off American record holder Chris Spell.
Elanga shared a video of the monster leap with his followers on Tik Tok.
The topless star worked up a sweat as he prepares for life under new manager Erik ten Hag.
The Sweden international suggested he would welcome some new players too and claimed competition within the squad is "vital for success".

Luk at that
Inter Milan fans turned out in force to get a glimpse of the returning Romelu Lukaku.
The ex-Man Utd man arrived in Milan for a medical today after Chelsea agreed a £6.9million fee to ship the 29-year-old out on loan.
And Lukaku grinned broadly as he waved to adoring fans from the window of the Italian Olympic Committee’s headquarters in Milan.
The Chelsea flop waved and gave a thumbs up to the crowd who had defied a warning from Inter Ultras NOT to welcome Lukaku back to the club.
Scorned Curva Nord fanatics urged fans not to “run and drool” after Lukaku following his return.
Instead they claimed he will have to earn their affection back with “humility and sweat”.

Hey Jude
Liverpool lead of clutch of clubs looking to sign Borussia Dortmund superstar Jude Bellingham.

Real Deal
Dortmund have reportedly named next summer's price for star man Jude Bellingham amid interest from a host of Europe's elite clubs.
The 19-year-old has racked up 148 professional appearances for Birmingham, Dortmund and England.
And his fine form and maturity in the Bundesliga has alerted a number of clubs.
According to SportBild, Premier League duo Manchester United and Liverpool are keen on the midfielder.
Elsewhere in Europe, Real Madrid are plotting a move for Bellingham to complete their midfield for the next decade.
A move to the Bernabeu would see Bellingham play alongside fellow teenager Eduardo Camavinga and big money signing Aurelien Tchouameni.

Super Sadio
Sadio Mane has got straight to work ahead of pre-season with Bayern Munich as he worked out shirtless in Palma de Mallorca.
The 30-year-old left Liverpool after six trophy-laden years in a £35million move to the German champions.
Mane admits wanting a "new challenge" was the reasoning behind his decision to leave the Merseyside club.
He said: "Obviously it is strange – really, really strange – to no longer be a Liverpool player.
“But of course I had a great time, an unbelievable time. We won a lot.
“My life is always (about a) challenge and when it came I said to the club that I want to leave, I want to go somewhere else to see a new challenge.
“It is not anything else, it is just a challenge because for me I want to always be challenging myself to get better and better.”

Who had worse Luk?
Former Liverpool defender Phil Thompson has compared Chelsea's signing of Romelu Lukaku to Manchester United's deal with Paul Pogba.
He told Paddy Power: "Yeah, it has gone bad – you could see problems in the Jose Mourinho days. If Jose Mourinho couldn’t
get a handle on this guy, then you wonder who else could."Look, he’s had some good games but so he should for the money he’s cost Manchester United.
"And it is astonishing when you think of the amount of good appearances compared to the amount they spent on him, it makes the cost feel even more astronomical.
"I think Man United has been a really difficult place to manage and ten Hag as a real job on there. But he’s helped by getting Pogba out the way.
"I read that he was offered £290,000 a week and he didn’t think that was enough – what has the game come to! What a cheek.
"I hope Man united didn’t offer him that sort of money because if he’d have accepted it, it wouldn’t have helped them in the coming season."

Not Will-ing
Liverpool are demanding at least £15million for Neco Williams after rejecting an offer from Nottingham Forest.
Sun Sport exclusively revealed on Sunday that Steve Cooper’s newly-promoted side were closing in on the Reds defender and Morgan Gibbs-White from Wolves.
The £35million double swoop comes after they nabbed Union Berlin’s Taiwo Awoniyi in a club-record £17.2m move.
However, the Daily Mail now claims that Forest must cough up more if they want to get Williams.
The 21-year-old shone on loan at Fulham in the Championship as he helped them to become champions and return to the Premier League.
Those displays have led to huge interest in the defender with Forest leading the chase.

And Tielemans features on a shortlist of playmakers the Dutchman is interested in signing.

Man United target issued warning
Man United target Anthony has been warned not to go on strike to force a move to Man United.
Reports suggested the Ajax star could be taking the extreme step to ensure the club let him leave after he failed to report back for pre-season training.
But former Ajax boss Aad de Mos dismissed the rumours, but advised Anthony to be aware of his reputation if true.
De Mos told Online Wedden 24: "That doesn’t come from Antony; it comes more from the agents usually.
“I don’t think it’s very wise for his reputation. Ajax is free to ask what they want because he still has a long-term contract.
“He has to be careful with it; it could be a disadvantage to himself because Ten Hag and United could say: we are no longer interested in a player who does that.”

Old Ronaldo training clip resurfaces
A clip has resurfaced taking Manchester United fans on a trip down memory lane during Cristiano Ronaldo's humble beginnings.
It shows what an influence legendary team-mates like Roy Keane had on his career as he initially struggled to adjust to English football, in the Twitter clip.

Keane quickly notices his young team-mate being caught off guard and is heard yelling, "Come on Cristiano".
Ronaldo's blunder led to a goal and the legendary United captain, who is known for his tough demeanor, was not at all happy.
Keane blasted the Real great as he yelled: "Cristiano, come on!"

Arsenal make third Martinez offer
Arsenal have made a third offer to Ajax for Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez – but they now face a massive battle with Manchester United, CHARLIE WYETT WRITES.
The north London club have improved the financial terms of their second bid of £34million for the centre-back.
But adding extra add-ons is unlikely to tempt Ajax who know that United are set to enter the fight with a first bid.
Ajax believe they are in a strong position and expect to get nearer their £43m asking price.
Martinez, 24, who is just 5ft 9ins tall and can also play at left-back, has indicated that he would be happy to move to Arsenal, whose first bid of £26m was rejected.
But the prospect of working with former boss Erik ten Hag could change his mind.
