Premier League season.

Before then though, it looks as though the Moisés Caicedo saga could come to a conclusion, although not in the way Liverpool fans would have hoped.

According to the Telegraph, Chelsea is on the brink of completing the signing of the Brighton midfielder, with the Blues looking to finalize a $146m

(£115m/€133m) deal as they hijack the $140m (£110m/€127m) agreement Liverpool had in place just a couple of days earlier.The news will come as

a blow to the Reds, who looked as though they had their new number six wrapped up, but now look set to be on the hunt again for a new option.

There is one obvious player they could turn to, although Chelsea could also beat them to that punch. Liverpool though will hope the obvious

advantages it holds over the Blues will eventually see its efforts pay off.

Here are the two Liverpool.com stories from today that you shouldn’t miss, with Roméo Lavia also high up on the agenda.

Roméo Lavia could be in dream Liverpool squad

The Moisés Caicedo saga looks like it’s about to reach its end, with Liverpool ultimately missing out on the Brighton midfielder. But, regardless of any

late, late drama around his move to Chelsea, the Reds still had more work to do beyond the 21-year-old.

In an ideal world, Jürgen Klopp would have been able to bring in Caicedo, plus another midfielder and a new defender to add to his ranks. Nothing

in that regard, as the Liverpool boss still needs to make three more signings this summer.

And he may well have to act quickly in order to secure the next best option, which would appear to be Roméo Lavia. Chelsea is also interested in the

Southampton midfielder, although with Caicedo seemingly out of the picture, it may free up funds for Liverpool to make a decisive move.

Liverpool has four key advantages over Chelsea

The Caicedo saga has been full of twists and turns, and no doubt it will add some spice to tomorrow’s opening fixture at Stamford Bridge.

It’s becoming increasingly likely that the Ecuador international might be there to watch on as a newly-signed Chelsea player, and given they’ve been

put through the ringer over the past couple of days, Liverpool fans will no doubt love nothing more than to beat the Blues on their own patch and

show Caicedo what he might be missing.

And, as Adam Brown points out, he’ll be missing a lot by snubbing a move to Anfield. The aforementioned supporters, the stability of the club,

European football and, of course, Jürgen Klopp perfectly demonstrate the advantages Liverpool holds over Chelsea.
