With the red card in the Bundesliga game at SC Freiburg (1-1), Jobe Bellingham’s mixed involvement with Borussia Dortmund reached its lowest point so far. The rumors about a quick BVB farewell are now flaring up again.
According to “Fichajes.net”, Manchester United has not yet given up hope of convincing Bellingham a move in the winter and guiding him to the Premier League.
Although the 20-year-old continues to struggle in the BVB jersey, the Revierklub is still categorically ruling out a sale. But: According to the report, a loan is now within the realm of possibility in order to take some of the pressure off of the personnel. Ligue 1 promoted FC Paris was recently discussed as a possible target for such a deal.
However, it seems unlikely that Bellingham could temporarily move to Man United. The Red Devils are currently only three points behind the Champions League places and have played one game less than the competition.
An oasis of well-being that would allow Bellingham to improve its shattered self-confidence in the short term has not existed around Old Trafford for many years.
BVB: Jobe Bellingham “also disappointed” after being sent off
First, the youngster has to deal with the next blow in the neck, his unfortunate red card in Freiburg, when he only knew how to help himself with an emergency brake against opponent Philipp Treu after a catastrophic pass from goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

“Jobe was also disappointed. He thought about how he could solve the situation better,” reported BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl. “It was a chain, it was avoidable. There are many things that can be done better in the operation. Jobe tries to save. Someone is always involved – this time it was Jobe.”
Kobel explained: “I have to see that better, I have to help Jobe. I feel sorry for him. In the end I’m happy to take it upon myself, that’s okay.”
