Jobe Bellingham is ready to assume a leadership role at Borussia Dortmund after a year of settling in at Signal Iduna Park. The 20-year-old Englishman has issued a rallying cry to Dortmund supporters, promising to deliver "great things" in the new season.
England U21 international Jobe Bellingham has reaffirmed his long-term commitment to Borussia Dortmund, shutting down any rumours of an early exit. After arriving last summer, the talented midfielder has grown into his role in Germany and is now focused on improving his attacking output as he looks to establish himself as a dominant force in the Bundesliga.
The 12 games of the Thomas Tuchel era have yielded mixed results and performances from England. They remain one of the best sides in international football, even if they haven't played particularly well for extended stretches since the Sir Gareth Southgate era. That said, they are among the favourites to win the 2026 World Cup for several reasons.
It is not just the restructuring of the sporting director role that means BVB are facing a major shake-up next summer. A number of long-serving players are set to leave the club – and even without these departures, there are gaps in the squad that need to be addressed urgently.
Jobe Bellingham had a difficult start at Borussia Dortmund and struggled to adapt to the higher standard of play. That never worried manager Niko Kovac. The 20-year-old has since made remarkable progress at BVB.
GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere. The Premier League is still obviously one of the world's most entertaining divisions and the Championship can prove fantastic for development, but there are more options out there.

Jobe Bellingham endured a difficult night in north London on Tuesday as his Borussia Dortmund side were beaten 2-0 by Tottenham Hotspur. Cristian Romero's strike put Spurs ahead before Daniel Svensson was sent off for a challenge on Wilson Odobert after intervention from the video assistant referee, with Dominic Solanke's effort then putting the game beyond BVB. Bellingham, brother of Real Madrid and England star Jude, came in for brutal criticism on social media for a perceived below-par performance.
"We’ve known Jobe [Bellingham] for several years, and of course we have followed his progress very closely. He has taken another huge step forward in his development over the last year, and even at the age of 19 he has become a real leader," Borussia Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said after Bellingham's £28 million ($37m) transfer from Sunderland in June. "His commanding presence in central midfield is remarkable, and he will improve our team in various systems."

Jobe Bellingham’s high-profile move to Borussia Dortmund has threatened to spiral into a nightmare, but reports from Germany suggest the former Sunderland star is fighting back to save his Bundesliga career. The 20-year-old, who followed in his brother Jude’s footsteps by swapping the Championship for the Signal Iduna Park last summer, has been branded a "training champion" by club staff as he undergoes a radical physical transformation to rediscover his best form.
Borussia Dortmund are set to back Jobe Bellingham after his poor start to life in Germany. The brother of Real Madrid star Jude has struggled to make a real impact in Germany after making his move from Sunderland. Nevertheless, a new report claims that the club have full faith in his ability and are not interested in parting ways with the youngster.
Jobe Bellingham has been slapped with a ban after being sent off during Borussia Dortmund's draw with Freiburg in the Bundesliga. Bellingham's miserable start to life in Germany continued on Sunday as the 20-year-old was shown a straight red card in Dortmund's disappointing 1-1 draw. The youngster joined the Bundesliga side from Sunderland in the summer after playing a starring role in the Black Cats' promotion.

Gregor Kobel has shouldered the blame for Borussia Dortmund's dropped points against Freiburg, admitting his distribution error led directly to the match-altering red card for Jobe Bellingham. The goalkeeper insisted the team was 'dominant' before the incident but conceded that they were forced to be 'satisfied' with a draw after playing the entire second half with ten men.
