Liverpool should prioritise a transfer move for Newcastle United star Joelinton over Chelsea contract rebel Mason Mount. That is the view of Dietmar Hamann, who believes Jurgen Klopp's side need the 'physical presence' the Brazilian would provide.
Joelinton has enjoyed his best season in a black-and-white shirt, with memories of his stint as a struggling striker now a distant memory. The former record signing has shone in both central midfield and from the left flank, with eight goals and three assists to his name ahead of the final-day visit to Chelsea.
The Blue have endured a dismal campaign, and look set to lose academy graduate Mount as he enters the final year of his contract. Recent reports suggest Manchester United have emerged as the favourites to sign the England international, although Arsenal and Liverpool have also been linked.
