At Borussia Dortmund, newcomer Jobe Bellingham gets little playing time. Does the youngster take the escape from BVB around the summer?
As “Sky Sport CH” reports, it is not excluded that Jobe Bellingham will leave Borussia Dortmund Bundesliga club again in winter.
Accordingly, the player and his environment are dissatisfied with the playing time of the youngster. The concerns are increasing.
If there is no improvement in the coming weeks, a departure is quite possible.
Bellingham had only switched from AFC Sunderland to BVB in summer. The black and yellow cost 30.5 million euros.
But under coach Niko Kovac, Bellingham does not come to the train as desired. In the Bundesliga, the 20-year-old was only allowed to go twice from the start. Over the full 90 minutes, he was not in any competitive game on the pitch. A fact that is said to have led to a confrontation between father and consultant Mark Bellingham and the BVB managers in August.

Kehl and Kovac promote patience at Bellingham
BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl had recently commented on the situation of the U21 national player England.
“It is clear that Jobe may want to play more. That is also ok, he is ambitious, he fights and trains hard,” Kehl praised the “Dazn” microphone. The Dortmund squad planner continued: “The boys who are currently playing do it well. It is difficult for the coach to leave an Sabitzer and an NMECHA outside. This is part of reality. But we will need Jobe.”
Kovac also recently promoted patience. He knew about Bellingham’s qualities, Jobe was young and “new to us,” he emphasized at a press conference. In the meantime, you have to remember this, because because of the name it also feels different for many.
