Carragher has compared Bellingham to the likes of Kevin de Bruyne as he reckons the Borussia Dortmund star will have a big impact in the Premier League.
Jamie Carragher has stressed how important securing the services of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham will be for any top English side in the coming seasons.
The ex-Liverpool defender has urged his former side, Manchester City and Manchester United to look into signing the England midfielder Bellingham next summer.
The 19-year-old is one of the most sought-after players in Europe and has already started the new season in flying colours, scoring a goal against 1860 Munich in the German Cup on Friday night.
"Well I think the one everyone talks about is Jude Bellingham and I don't think it's just his ability," Carragher told a Twitter Space with Football Daily.
"I think it's his age and the fact if you got him, spent big money on him, he would hopefully be at your club.
"It's not just Liverpool, I'm sure Man City, Man United are looking at him, all the other top clubs, when you're buying him you're thinking we could have a player for the next 10 or 12 years, I think that's the thinking.
"His ability is really good and it's almost the potential of what he could become, could he become like Kevin De Bruyne is now basically - which is for me - the best player in the Premier League, you look at him in that midfield position and you think wow.
"Maybe Man City are thinking he could replace De Bruyne or Liverpool could bring him in and he can add something or revolutionise Man United's midfield. I think he's the one that stands out for everybody, I think there will be an auction next summer and I hope Liverpool win it, fingers crossed."
'I would love to see Bellingham at Liverpool,' says Redknapp
Jamie Redknapp told BBC Radio Merseyside: "Bellingham is a world-class midfield player and I've been a massive fan from the first moment I saw him.
"I remember at Birmingham hearing so many good things about him and that everyone wanted him.
"I would love to see him at Liverpool, I think he would thrive. He would love to play in front of the Kop. I think it would be a great signing, it might take some time but I am a massive fan of him."
