Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez.

Known for his energy and attacking runs, Kerkez is seen as a player who can push Andy Robertson for a starting spot — or at least give the Scot a well-earned breather.

With Arne Slot now steering the ship, it’s clear Liverpool are shifting gears and aiming for more squad depth in defense.

Sky Sports reports that the deal with Bournemouth is almost complete, with a medical set for Tuesday.

It’s a fast move — typical Liverpool style.

Interestingly, Liverpool’s sporting director Richard Hughes played a key role in bringing Kerkez to Bournemouth last year from AZ Alkmaar.

No problem there — Kerkez is said to be eager for the move.

Bournemouth have already made moves to fill the gap, signing Adrien Truffert from Rennes.

That cleared the way for Kerkez to pack his bags for Merseyside.

Kerkez will join Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, and Armin Pecsi as Liverpool’s summer signings.
