Neither Manchester City nor Liverpool were too busy in the summer transfer window, with the two title hopefuls bringing in just three players for the new season between them.
City shelled out £30million to sign Brazilian winger Savinho from French side Troyes, while they also brought Ilkay Gundogan back to the club on a free from Barcelona. Liverpool landed Federico Chiesa from Juventus, while also agreeing a deal with Valencia that will see goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili join next summer.
