🔴 Liverpool Closing In on Milos Kerkez Signing as Negotiations Advance
Liverpool fans have fresh reason to be optimistic as the club accelerates its pursuit of Milos Kerkez, Bournemouth’s talented young left-back. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that talks between Liverpool, Bournemouth, and the player’s representatives have been ongoing for weeks — with the deal now looking increasingly likely.
“The next signing for Liverpool could be Milos Kerkez,” Romano shared on his YouTube channel. “So get ready, Liverpool fans — talks have been happening for weeks.”
This move, if finalized, would be part of a broader defensive overhaul at Anfield under new head coach Arne Slot. The 21-year-old Hungarian international could join a revamped backline potentially including Jeremie Frimpong and emerging talent Armin Pecsi, as Liverpool looks to future-proof its squad after reclaiming the Premier League title.
🇭🇺 Kerkez’s Rise and Fit at Liverpool
Kerkez has impressed during his debut Premier League season with Bournemouth, making 41 appearances, scoring two goals, and providing six assists — a notable return for a full-back. Known for his explosive pace, intelligent overlapping runs, and attacking intent, he aligns perfectly with Liverpool’s high-octane, width-driven playing style.
His addition would not only bring depth to the left flank but could provide a long-term successor to Andy Robertson, who is approaching 30 and has had injury setbacks. With Kostas Tsimikas attracting interest and having just two years left on his deal, Liverpool’s timing appears strategic.
🤝 International Chemistry with Szoboszlai
One key advantage Kerkez brings is his established chemistry with Liverpool’s Dominik Szoboszlai, his teammate at international level for Hungary. Their understanding on the left flank could give Liverpool immediate cohesion and an added attacking spark — especially vital in games where space is tight and moments of synergy can decide outcomes.
⚽ A Summer of Intent at Anfield
Kerkez would mark another swift piece of business by sporting director Richard Hughes, joining what could soon become a trio of early summer signings alongside Frimpong and Florian Wirtz. All signs suggest that Liverpool is determined not only to defend their domestic crown but to make a serious statement in Europe next season.
Romano’s reliable confirmation, coupled with weeks of negotiations behind the scenes, means a deal is now seen as a matter of “when,” not if.” If all progresses as expected, Milos Kerkez could be unveiled as Liverpool’s next exciting addition before the month is out.
