Liverpool are set to fight with Chelsea for one of their top targets this summer following the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino at Stamford Bridge.
Both clubs are bidding to overhaul their squad this summer, with Jurgen Klopp and co reeling from missing out on Champions League football. And after Liverpool's failed pursuit of Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham, Klopp has turned his attention to a host of other players, with a deal all but done for Brighton star Alexis Mac Allister.
The Blues face a problem of a difficult kind, however. After their worst top flight finish in almost 30 years, their new Argentinian manager's first task will be to trim his bloated squad, following a string of underwhelming big-money moves overseen by owner Todd Boehly in the past 12 months.
