Real Madrid are pleased with Jude Bellingham's stand at Borussia Dortmund.
The England international is a top target for Real Madrid, which tried for the midfielder last summer.
With Dortmund refusing to sell, Real Madrid turned to Aurelien Tchouameni and signed the youngster from AS Monaco.
However, Real remain keen on Bellingham and Marca says assurances of a 2023 move - so long as he didn't renew his contract wth BVB - were relayed to the player's camp earlier this month.
And with Bellingham still working to his original 2025 deal, Real are pleased seeing the youngster prepared to work to their plan.
For their part, BVB have been attempting to open new contract talks with Bellingham in recent weeks.
