Liverpool are on the brink of securing one of the most exciting full-back talents in European football, with Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez set to undergo a medical ahead of a £40 million move to Anfield.
Yet despite interest from several top sides, Kerkez made it clear: he only wanted Liverpool.
The Reds’ persistence and project proved decisive, and with all terms agreed, and according to TBR Football, Kerkez is expected to complete his medical and be unveiled as a Liverpool player before the weekend.
His decision to choose Merseyside over other European giants speaks volumes about the pull of the club, and the project under Arne Slot.
Liverpool’s intent to bolster their left flank has been evident, and Kerkez looks like the perfect long-term successor to Andy Robertson.
Slot, who values high-energy, attacking full-backs, clearly sees Kerkez as an ideal fit for his system.
Kostas Tsimikas, though a capable backup, hasn’t fully convinced the new manager, and sources suggest Liverpool are open to moving him on this summer.
The plan is clear: Kerkez will push Robertson from day one and gradually grow into a starting role, ensuring the club’s left side remains elite for years to come.
The £40 million fee reflects both Kerkez’s potential and Liverpool’s commitment to investing wisely in the squad.
Arne Slot is clearly building something exciting, and Kerkez looks poised to be a central part of Liverpool’s next era.
