There is huge potential for Liverpool and Chelsea to butt heads off the field this summer, as both clubs seek to utilise the transfer market in order to close the gap to the top of the Premier League table.
The Reds and the Blues each suffered an underwhelming campaign as they dropped out of the top four, together highlighting the requirement to get a club's transfer strategy spot on in this highly competitive league. Liverpool's lack of strengthening in key areas contributed to their downfall, whilst Chelsea's can simply be put down to their handling of the whopping 17 players they acquired across two windows.
Now the campaign has ended, however, both have rapidly turned their attentions to resolving their respective issues. The London club's first step to doing so was appointing Mauricio Pochettino, who could look to scupper his counterpart Jurgen Klopp's plans regarding the signings of Mason Mount and Borussia Monchengladbach's Manu Kone.
