Manchester City and Liverpool are the targets as clubs look to wear the crown
For all the global appeal and excitement the Premier League generates, there is a clear danger the dominance of Manchester City and Liverpool reaches a level of repetitiveness that undermines the competitive appeal of England’s top flight.
Not since Chelsea triumphed in 2017, a year after Leicester City’s utterly unexpected title, has the Premier League had a winner from outside the two North West clubs. Brazil forward Richarlison, bought from Everton, joins an impressive attack featuring England captain Harry Kane and South Korean Son Heung-min — the joint top scorer in the league last season with 23 goals.
A new ownership group, headed by American Todd Boehly, is now in place at Stamford Bridge and Tuchel has moved to freshen up his squad. Arsenal have slowly progressed under Mikel Arteta, finishing fifth in 2021 and they have made impressive moves in the market as they push to return to the top four. New manager Erik ten Hag has brought in centre-back Lisandro Martinez from his old club Ajax and left-back Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord, while Denmark’s Christian Eriksen has joined on a free after his spell at Brentford showed he is back to full health.
