Chelsea and Liverpool have gone to battle in the transfer market for the signature of Brighton's Moises Caicedo before they face off at Stamford Bridge on the opening weekend of the Premier League season.
The Blues slumped to 12th in the Premier League last season - their lowest finish since 1994 - despite spending over £500 million on new players during the first year of the club's new ownership. The Reds are also in need of new midfielders after losing captain Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain since the end of last season
"Obviously, when a lot of players are leaving, when your captain is leaving, your vice-captain is leaving, and at the moment, there are only two incomings ... I can understand some people having doubts," said Van Dijk.
Klopp also had to row back on his previous criticism of other clubs spending over £100 million on a single player."I'm not blaming anyone but it's just the market. In the end, we as a club have to make sure that, with our resources, we get the best possible player."
