MADRID -- Real Madrid has reached an agreement to sign Jude Bellingham for a fee that could reach more than 130 million euros ($139 million), Borussia Dortmund said Wednesday.
The German club said the fixed fee will be 103 million euros ($110 million), plus variables that could reach more than 30 million euros ($32 million).
Dortmund said in a statement to the stock exchange that the contract details still have to be ``coordinated and completed,'' and the transfer is subject ``to the proper and timely processing in accordance with the provisions'' of FIFA.
The 19-year-old versatile English midfielder will join a Madrid squad that currently has veterans Luka Modric and Toni Kroos in midfield, as well as Eduardo Camavinga, Federico Valverde, Dani Ceballos and Aurelien Tchouameni.
Bellingham's three-season stay at Dortmund is set to end after the team missed out on the German title to Bayern Munich on goal difference. Bellingham was crucial to the title challenge but was an unused substitute in the decisive last game against Mainz after a knee injury.
