Pat Nevin has described Chelsea target Jude Bellingham as “extra special”.
Borussia Dortmund youngster Bellingham, 19, is currently dazzling on the World Cup stage for his country.
The England midfielder really impressed on the weekend during a 3-0 win against Senegal in the last-16 of the World Cup, which has set up a mouth-watering quarter-final against France.
There’s certainly a lot of excitement in the media about the rising teenage star, with both Gary Neville and Roy Keane waxing lyrical about his latest performance on Sunday.

Journalist Matt Law recently claimed that Chelsea are willing to bid whatever it takes to sign Bellingham from Dortmund.
The Blues are one of several clubs linked to the all-action midfielder, who offers so much in both offensive and defensive areas of the pitch.
Extra special Jude Bellingham
“He does look extra, extra special,” Nevin told Off The Ball.
“I’ve seen him have quiet games, but you do that when you’re young. At the moment you just see a player’s gate change, his body shape change, his attitude towards the rest of the world change.
“Any team in the world now would take him. I don’t think there’s a single team on the planet, if you offered him, they wouldn’t take him right now.
“He’s going to be a very special player.”
Nevin is only saying what a lot of people, especially England fans, are saying about Bellingham.
This young talent looks to be the complete package, but will he be able to deal with such crazy hype around his name moving forward?
It certainly looks like he’s got such a wise head on young shoulders.
