AS newspaper revealed that Jude Bellingham’s transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid was worth much more than advertised.
According to what Real Madrid said, the transfer of the English international cost the royal club’s coffers only 103 million euros.
Dortmund’s president, Hans-Joachim Watzke, sparked controversy with his statements that if Bellingham’s value was only 103 million euros, his club would have negotiated very poorly.
AS newspaper indicates that the actual value of Bellingham’s transfer to Real Madrid is 134 million euros.
Real Madrid has already paid 103 million euros as a fixed value for the transfer, while the remaining amount is in the form of bonuses for easy-to-verify achievements.
According to the report, 25 million euros of these rewards are guaranteed to be verified, while more complex rewards, such as the player achieving the Golden Ball and the like, are also not excluded.
In general, Real Madrid does not feel a loss, as the sporting and promotional gains that have come and will come from behind Bellingham will exceed the value of the amount paid to Dortmund.
