Manchester United are reportedly eyeing a move for Jobe Bellingham, the younger brother of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham, as part of their midfield rebuild under manager Rúben Amorim.
🔍 Who is Jobe Bellingham?
Jobe, 20, currently plays for Borussia Dortmund, having joined from Sunderland in a €33 million move after helping the Black Cats earn promotion to the Premier League. While his older brother Jude made an immediate impact at Dortmund before moving to Madrid, Jobe has struggled for consistent minutes in Germany. He’s started only three matches across all competitions this season, totaling just 281 minutes.
🧠 Amorim’s Tactical Vision
United manager Rúben Amorim reportedly sees Jobe as a strong fit for his 3-4-2-1 tactical system, which emphasizes dynamic midfielders capable of pressing and transitioning quickly. Amorim is said to admire Jobe’s technical ability and versatility, viewing him as a long-term project rather than an immediate starter.
🔄 Transfer Outlook
While Jobe’s current situation at Dortmund is uncertain, with limited starts and growing frustration from his camp, United are not alone in monitoring him. Crystal Palace are also reportedly interested, and Premier League clubs are keeping close tabs on his development.
A January move could be on the cards if Dortmund remain reluctant to give him more game time. With United seeking a successor to Casemiro and looking to inject youth into their midfield, Jobe Bellingham could be a strategic acquisition.
