Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has urged his former club not to miss out on signing Borussia Dortmund whizkid Jude Bellingham.
The 18-year-old is widely regarded as one of the most exciting prospects in world football after a valuable spell with Dortmund.
Bellingham came close to joining United before signing with Dortmund in the summer of 2020, and Ferdinand says his former club can't afford to miss out again.
Speaking on Vibe with Five, Ferdinand was asked about Bellingham's position, to which he replied: ''Any. He is that good. In the England youth teams, there were times he was playing as a holding midfielder, the number eight, box-to-box, and times he can go on and join the attack even more.
"He has the capability and capacity to play all of the roles, he is that good. I think for him I see him as someone who can do it all.
"There aren't that many midfielders now who can attack and defend and affect the game at both ends of the pitch.
"When you are one of the super clubs, you think if we have got the financial muscle to get him, he is one you don't want to miss out on."
