United want to sign teenage star Bellingham this month after sending Phelan to watch
Manchester United’s pursuit of Jude Bellingham, the 16-year-old performing consistently in Birmingham City’s first team, was sparked in earnest after Mike Phelan went on a personal scouting mission to St Andrew’s, my colleague Laurie Whitwell reports.
Assistant manager Phelan was seen in attendance when West Bromwich Albion faced their city rivals on December 14. Birmingham lost the match 3-2 but Bellingham played well before being replaced on 74 minutes.
United are trying to do a deal for the midfielder in this window but a potential fee of £25 million is proving prohibitive. There is also the fact Bellingham would be reluctant to drop into an under-23 set-up having secured his place in senior football, albeit in the Championship.
Bellingham has made 24 appearances this season for Birmingham, scoring four goals, including one in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Cardiff City. He has also appeared for England at under-15, under-16 and under-17 level.
