Liverpool are going full steam ahead in terms of their summer transfer business.
Indeed, the Reds aren’t wasting any time at all in getting going in this transfer window as they look to conclude numerous deals before we even enter July.
Jeremie Frimpong has already signed for Liverpool, Florian Wirtz is close to joining the Reds, while Milos Kerkez has been strongly linked to Liverpool.
The Kerkez deal isn’t quite done yet, and speaking on his YouTube channel, Fabrizio Romano has shared some insight into this transfer and why it hasn’t yet been completed.

Romano shared what he knows about Kerkez potentially heading to Anfield.
The journalist is steadfast in his view that Kerkez will eventually join Liverpool, but he says there are some small details to sort out.
However, Romano says that this small detail is a private matter and not something he can reveal at this point.
“I maintain my position, Milos Kerkez will be a Liverpool player.
In this case there is some small details to clarify with Bournemouth, but I maintain my position, I see Milos Kerkez going to Liverpool this summer,” Romano said.

“Then, they still have to close these details, that’s why there is no here we go, but it’s coming.
This deal is on the right direction to becoming a here we go for Milos Kerkez for Liverpool.
“I hope football fans understand I can’t say everything about a deal, this is a private matter, but I can’t release too much, but trust me, what I can tell you today is that I expect Milos Kerkez to go.”
Bournemouth and Liverpool seem to be thrashing out some key details in this negotiation, and it’s easy to understand why the Cherries are so keen to squeeze all they can out of this deal.
Indeed, Bournemouth are already in a difficult situation this summer with key players leaving.
Dean Huijsen has already joined Real Madrid, even though Liverpool were keen on Huijsen, while PSG are keen on Ilya Zabarnyi.
On top of that, Antoine Semenyo is wanted by some top clubs as well.
Bournemouth may be set to lose some key personnel this summer, and they need to make sure they squeeze as much value as possible out of each of these deals.
