Los Blancos are reportedly close to completing their first signing ahead of next season.
Real Madrid are reported to be close to completing the signing of England international Jude Bellingham ahead of the summer transfer window.
The 19-year-old has been subject to several transfer speculations, with a number of clubs in the Premier League looking to bring him back to England; however, according to recent reports, his next destination is the Spanish capital.
Bellingham to Real Madrid
According to Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid are close to reaching an agreement with Borussia Dortmund for the signing of Jude Bellingham.
Los Blancos have long been keen on the signing of the England international, and their recent push is said to have yielded positive results, suggesting that the deal is all but done.
The player is said to also be keen to make the move, and personal terms are all but agreed upon. The club's chief scout, Juni Calafat, was heavily involved in making the deal happen, according to the report.
Liverpool were previously the frontrunner to land Bellingham, but the Reds backed out citing a lack of funds. Manchester City were also interested in the midfielder, but they have now seemingly lost out to the Spanish giants.

More on Liverpool pulling out
As previously reported, Liverpool look set to miss out on qualifying for the Champions League next season. They are also in need of a new midfield and backline.
According to senior Anfield sources, the deal wasn't feasible after extensive discussions, and they felt they couldn't afford to put all their eggs in one basket, especially since there are no guarantees that Bellingham will even leave Dortmund this summer or choose Anfield as his destination.
