Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard has offered his services to his former club, claiming he would fly out to Germany himself and speak to Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham in an attempt to convince him to move to Anfield. The England World Cup star has been linked with a move to Jurgen Klopp’s side, but they face significant competition from across Europe.

Liverpool could sign Bellingham but would face a blow if they do not qualify for next season’s Champions League, as the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester City have also expressed their interest in paying a fee of over £100million for the midfielder.

Gerrard has tipped the teenager to consider Liverpool even if they missed out on a top four place this year, and even offered to buy him a “nice dinner” in Dortmund in a bid to turn his head towards an Anfield transfer.

“I am sure Jude Bellingham is bright enough to look at Liverpool, who have one of the top five managers in the world,” Gerrard told BT Sport. “They are building a new stand, they have world class facilities I want Jude Bellingham at Liverpool. I’ll fly out to Dortmund and take him out for a nice dinner!”
