Central midfield has become a key battleground in this transfer window and Manchester United have managed to contribute to the spending spree with a potential £60millon deal for Mason Mount.
Liverpool are close to signing their second midfielder of the summer, Manchester City have already signed one and Arsenal are pushing to add Declan Rice to Kai Havertz in their own rebuild in that area of the pitch.
It's Liverpool who have had to be busy through necessity. Their engine room kept cutting out last year and the loss of power condemned them to a season without Champions League football.
