Chelsea star Edouard Mendy expects Liverpool to suffer from "huge impact" in new season

Chelsea star Edouard Mendy reckons the loss of Sadio Mane at Liverpool will have a "huge impact" ahead of the new season.

The Reds lost the Senegal international to Bayern Munich after he told them that he would not sign a new contract and was hoping for a fresh challenge. Though Jurgen Klopp did not want the forward to leave, a deal was agreed with the Bundesliga giants in the region of around £35million.

Darwin Nunez had already been brought in as a replacement from Benfica in a club-record transfer worth £85m but the 22-year-old might need some time to acclimatise to the Premier League. And in a division where tiny margins can make a massive difference, some believe that Liverpool might have shot themselves in the foot.
