CRYSTAL Palace are being linked with a move for Sunderland midfielder Jobe Bellingham.
Bellingham, 19, is the younger brother of Real Madrid and England midfielder Jude.
Bellingham has impressed with the Back Cats this season, helping them to mount a Championship promotion challenge.
Bellingham started his career at Birmingham City – where Jude made his name before joining Borussia Dortmund – before a £1.5million switch to Wearside in 2023.
Despite his age, Bellingham is closing in on 100 league appearances. He is on 92, with eleven league gaols.
Palace are in the market for a midfielder in this window with Adam Wharton hit by injuries this season.
Bellingham is rated in the £20million bracket – the amount Palace paid Blackburn Rovers for Wharton a year ago.
