Liverpool swoop in to hijack Arsenal’s target, Mourinho eager to snatch Chelsea duo

Liverpool have swoop in to hijack arsenal potential target Ben Chilwell who plays for Leicester city.

So far, the 20-year-old has made four appearances in the premier league this season.

According to report, Jurgen Klopp is a firm admirer of the powerful defender, while he has been keeping tabs on the starlet since last year.

Chilwell signed a new long-term contract at the King Power Stadium back in July, tying him to the club until 2021, but that won’t shake Liverpool’s attempt to land their summer target.

He has been tipped by supporters to make England squad as soon as he starts playing regularly.

Arsenal have also been monitoring his progress, but it is almost certain that Arsene Wenger will quit the club in the summer, placing any interest in doubt.

But Klopp is arguably ready to place a £10million offer for a player that he failed to sign for £7m last summer.

In other news Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has shown great interest to sign Chelsea duo Nemanja Matic and Willian.

And with great doubts surrounding a new contract for midfielder Michael Carrick – Oxlade-Chamberlain is also on Mourinho’s radar as a potential replacement.

Mirror reported that Mourinho is keen to strengthen his midfield this summer following the January exit of Memphis Depay and Morgan Schneiderlin.
