Liverpool’s decision to conclude their transfer business early this summer spells good news for Chelsea amid their ongoing interest in winger Ousmane Dembele.
It was thought that Sadio Mane's Anfield departure this summer to Bayern Munich - a deal expected to be confirmed in the coming days - would leave Jurgen Klopp on the lookout for another winger, with Dembele's status as a free agent at the end of the month seemingly a perfect potential replacement for Senegal international.
However, following Liverpool’s recent capture of Benfica forward Darwin Nunez for an initial £64million, reports suggest that their summer spending is very close to being over. The Champions League finalists have agreed a deal with Aberdeen to sign 18-year-old right-back Calvin Ramsey for around £4million, joining Nunez and the club’s only other singing Fabio Carvalho from newly-promoted Fulham.
