Liverpool Eyes Bournemouth's Kerkez for Left-Back Reinforcement
According to The Telegraph, Liverpool is looking to strengthen their left-back position by targeting Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth. The 21-year-old Hungarian international has emerged as a key target for the Reds, who are seeking a long-term solution on the left flank.
Currently, Liverpool relies on Andy Robertson, whose contract runs until 2026 but is no longer meeting the club's expectations. Robertson is likely to leave in the summer, and backup Konstantinos Tsimikas is also not considered top-tier quality.
Kerkez has impressed this season, scoring 2 goals and providing 4 assists in 30 appearances across all competitions for Bournemouth. His performances have caught the attention of Liverpool's scouting team, who see him as a promising talent for the future.
However, Bournemouth is expected to demand at least £40 million for the young defender, making this a significant investment for Liverpool.
