Crystal Palace bid fails as Sunderland set price for Job Bellingham

Bellingham has enjoyed a solid season at Sunderland, who struggled in the Championship last season after sacking Tony Mowbray, and is very much in demand during the ongoing transfer window. popular.

The relatively unknown Réges Le Bris is now in charge of the Stadium of Light and will have to deal with clubs looking to snap up Bellingham.

Crystal Palace tried to make an offer but Sunderland rejected it, while offers from other clubs also fell through.

Sunderland want to keep Bellingham but will consider selling him if offers start to exceed £20m.

The Black Cats are keen to keep Bellingham at the club for another full season and monitor his further development.

Palace received a cash inflow from the sale of winger Michael Olise to Bayern Munich.

After successfully acquiring Adam Walton from Blackburn Rovers, they are keen to use part of the proceeds to bring in a young domestic midfielder.

There are doubts over whether the Eagles will pay more than £20m for Bellingham, especially as they also need a more Olis-like replacement.
