Renowned journalist, David Ornstein, has provided a new update on Liverpool’s interest in Bournemouth left-back, Milos Kerkez, confirming the player is being monitored ahead of a potential summer move.

There have been suggestions that Andy Robertson’s injury concerns and Kostas Tsimikas’ future have led the club to explore potential alternatives, with Kerkez’s profile fitting the system Liverpool intend to evolve into.

No formal bid has been made, but Ornstein’s update confirms that there is genuine interest in the Hungary international, who could be available if Bournemouth receive the right offer.

Ornstein addressed the circulating rumours about Kerkez’s potential transfer to Liverpool in a Q&A for The Athletic.

Liverpool are his priority and he is their top target but they will have other options, too.

It’s not advanced club-to-club yet, but clearly that can change at any point – if Liverpool (or anyone else) are ready to offer the sort of money Bournemouth are seeking.

If Liverpool do push ahead, he could provide competition and a long-term solution in the left-back position.

His potential move to Liverpool fits with the club’s strategy to strengthen their defensive options, especially with the anticipated arrival of right-back Jeremie Frimpong.

Liverpool supporters will be keenly monitoring this story as the summer transfer window draws near.

Do you think we’ll see Kerkez wearing the Red shirt soon?
