CESC FABREGAS is at the centre of a £25million transfer battle between Manchester United and bitter rivals Liverpool.

And Fabregas’ old Blues manager Jose Mourinho is also a long-time admirer of the hugely-experienced playmaker and is keen to take him to Old Trafford as part of his summer spending plans.
Klopp, too, wants to beef up his midfield, particularly in the light of growing interest from Barcelona in Philippe Coutinho.
