Miloš Kerkez leaving AFC Bournemouth?
Liverpool are contemplating the acquisition of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez as they investigate options for a new left-back. Journalist Paul Joyce verified that Liverpool's interest in the defender is authentic and suggested that they might pursue him. The sporting director, Richard Hughes, is evaluating left-back alternatives, mainly because Andrew Robertson is approaching the age of 31, with Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez being one of the potential candidates. A report indicated that Kerkez prefers a transfer to Liverpool rather than a move to Manchester United.
Team Talk reports on Manchester United's interest in Milos Kerkez for the left wing-back position. Milos Kerkez is on Manchester United's shortlist for the left wing-back position, though he is considered a more expensive option compared to Patrick Dorgu. Kerkez is also of interest to Liverpool, and a bidding war could increase his price towards £50m. Bournemouth are preparing to sign his replacement, Julio Soler.
Liverpool and Manchester United have taken a keen interest in Milos Kerkez. Bournemouth appears to be preparing for Kerkez's sale after agreeing on a deal to sign his replacement.
Manchester United is another club interested in the promising left-back Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth. Kerkez is valued at 40 million pounds (around 48 million euros).
Arne Slot has recognized the necessity to bolster the left-back position. Milos Kerkez, a young defender from Bournemouth, has been identified as Liverpool's primary target for the winter transfer market. The club is seeking an alternative to Andrew Robertson, aiming for someone who can offer both defensive stability and offensive prowess. Kerkez has made a strong impression in the Premier League with his consistent performances and adaptability, having appeared in 46 matches for Bournemouth and contributing one goal and three assists.
Milos Kerkez has appeared on the radar of both Manchester United and Liverpool, as reported by the Spanish outlet Relevo. Manchester United is interested in Kerkez due to injuries to their current left-backs, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, and has been playing Diogo Dalot in that position. They seek to change this with the acquisition of Kerkez.
FootballTransfers understands that Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez is under consideration by INEOS.
