Liverpool are reportedly set to make a formal bid for Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez this summer, according to Fichajes.
Kerkez has been one of the standout performers for the Cherries this season, delivering consistently impressive displays since the campaign began.
The 21-year-old has been a key figure in Andoni Iraola’s squad, featuring in all 29 Premier League matches and contributing eight goals.
Fichajes reports that Kerkez is eager to leave the Vitality Stadium this summer in pursuit of the next step in his career.
Liverpool have joined several top European clubs in expressing interest, with Arne Slot keen on reinforcing his defensive options ahead of next season.
The Reds are preparing a formal offer of around €50m (£41m) to secure the Hungarian international’s signature.
With Andrew Robertson now 31 and approaching the later stages of his career, Liverpool see Kerkez as a long-term solution for the left-back position.
The coming months will be crucial in determining whether the youngster makes the switch to Anfield.
Liverpool are on the brink of a Premier League title after an outstanding season, despite setbacks in the Champions League and Carabao Cup final.
Their league form has been exceptional, boasting the second-best defensive record (27 goals conceded), trailing only Arsenal (25), their closest title rivals.
A busy transfer window is expected, particularly in defence, where strengthening Robertson’s position is a priority.
Kerkez has emerged as a strong candidate, thanks to his reliable performances for Bournemouth, making him a likely contender for the Premier League Team of the Season.
The Hungarian full-back excels both defensively and in attack, possessing a lethal left foot capable of delivering pinpoint crosses and precise long balls.
With Bournemouth already securing Argentina U23 left-back Julio Soler from Lanus as a potential replacement, the door is now open for Kerkez’s summer departure.
