Liverpool Secure Milos Kerkez in £45M Move from Bournemouth
Liverpool have officially signed 21-year-old Hungarian left-back Milos Kerkez from AFC Bournemouth in a £45 million transfer, tying him down to a five-year contract that runs through June 2030.
Kerkez made waves in his debut Premier League season with Bournemouth, drawing interest from several top European clubs thanks to his blistering pace, fearless defending, and mature performances. However, it was Liverpool who ultimately secured his signature, edging out both domestic and continental rivals.
This high-profile acquisition aligns with Liverpool’s efforts to refresh the squad in the post-Jürgen Klopp era. With veteran left-back Andy Robertson now past 30 and the position plagued by injuries in recent seasons, Kerkez arrives as both a long-term solution and a serious contender for a starting role.
Kerkez Reacts to Anfield Move
“Joining Liverpool is a dream come true,” said Kerkez after the deal was finalized. “The history, the fans, the winning culture — it’s all incredible. I can’t wait to step onto the pitch at Anfield and compete for trophies.”
Liverpool’s sporting director also praised the signing:
“Milos is a player we’ve watched for some time. His energy, skill, and mentality perfectly align with our values. He has huge potential, and we believe he’ll thrive at Liverpool.”
Kerkez will wear the number 21 shirt and is expected to report for pre-season training immediately. Excitement is building among Liverpool fans as they anticipate seeing the Hungarian talent bolster a squad aiming to defend their Premier League title and contend for major European honors.
