Bellingham agrees new Real deal - Saturday's gossip

Real Madrid have secured Jude Bellingham’s future at the club with a contract extension tying him to the Bernabeu until 2031, solidifying his status as a cornerstone of the squad. The move comes as other high-profile transfers remain in flux, with Arsenal and Liverpool reportedly needing to meet a £60 million valuation to sign Brentford’s Kevin Schade.

Meanwhile, Barcelona’s Jules Kounde is drawing interest from Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich as he weighs his future at the Catalan club, while Leeds are monitoring Marseille’s financial situation amid potential interest in Igor Paixão. Barcelona have also ruled out a bidding war for Manchester United’s JJ Gabriel, despite Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain expressing interest in the 16-year-old prodigy.

Off the field, Leeds manager Daniel Farke has extended his own stay at Elland Road with a new deal until 2029, while Bayern Munich’s talks with Harry Kane remain in progress without a formal commitment yet. AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori will depart the club at season’s end after his contract expires, and Real Madrid may explore loan options for Brahim Diaz in January as Endrick rises in the pecking order.
