Norwegian superstar Jakob Ingebrigtsen was already imagining the World Championships gold medal on his mantelpiece last year before Josh Kerr stormed through to clinch the title.
The pair have traded blows back and forth in the press since then, with a slew of fiery darts flying across the North Sea at one another.
Their rivalry will be laid bare for all to savour in Paris. The 1500m event at these Games will be their first race against one another in 2024.

In the women's race, Faith Kipyegon has won this title in Rio and Tokyo, and has since broken the 1500m, 5000m and mile world records.
This race is not a done deal, however. Gudaf Tsegay and Jessica Hull join Kipyegon among the top five fastest women's 1500m runners in history and will each hope to contend for glory.
