The FA have strong links with Dortmund as England assistant coach Steve Holland has been a regular at the club in recent years to check on Jadon Sancho.
The FA’s relationship with Dortmund will help England’s aim of moulding Bellingham into becoming a senior squad member.
Dortmund have agreed to share Bellingham’s videos and training data, and Under-19 manger Keith Downing and Under-21 boss Aidy Bothroyd will be kept informed of his progress.
Gareth Southgate acknowledges Bellingham as a special talent but the youngster will need to have significant first-team experience at Dortmund before the England manager considers him for a senior call-up, particularly given the midfield options at his disposal.
