And 90Min claim the Red Devils are also interested in landing his younger brother Jobe.

The youngster plays for the Birmingham City academy and has represented England at youth level.

But the Red Devils face competition from Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund for Jude's signature.

Birmingham will demand a transfer fee in the region of £30million for their most talented youngster this summer.

Solskjaer's side are prepared to part with £50million if it means beating their rivals to the signing.

The United manager wants the 16-year-old to compete with the likes of Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes next term.

The Premier League giants rolled out the red carpet for Bellingham and his family when they gave him a tour of the training ground in March.

SunSport exclusively revealed that the Birmingham City midfielder was "blown away" by the facility.

Man United could have saved £51m on Bruno Fernandes if they’d waited until summer
