Because the first day of the Premier League between the two teams was not enough for us (1-1). After the formalization of Moisés Caicedo on Monday evening, Chelsea have definitely overtaken Liverpool in the race for Roméo Lavia. However, the Belgian was Jürgen Klopp’s top priority to compensate for the departure of Fabinho, who left for Saudi Arabia. But the Blues were more convincing, and above all faster in the file.
Indeed, The Athletic announces that Roméo Lavia has made his choice, and it will be Chelsea. If Liverpool had been tracking the midfielder since the start of the summer, the Reds were much too late in putting the sum requested by Southampton. Moreover, in view of the excellent relations that the Saints have with the London club, the negotiations were only obvious. The choice of the player then made the difference, and the latter wishes to commit, like Moisés Caicedo, to Chelsea. A huge disappointment for Liverpool, who find themselves depopulated in the midfield. A huge victory for the Blues, who will be able to form an enticing trio Enzo – Caicedo – Lavia for the next decade to come.
