Liverpool Are Convinced About Signing This Bournemouth Left-Back: Decent Signing For Slot?
In a recent post on X, journalist Florian Plettenberg mentioned that Liverpool are convinced about signing Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez. It is believed that the Reds have a verbal agreement in place with the Hungarian defender and will complete his capture after they sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Kerkez's Impressive Form In The Premier League Last Season Kerkez had a solid season at the English club after he put in a string of impressive performances on the left side of their defence. The 21-year-old registered two goals and grabbed six assists in 41 matches for Bournemouth last season on all fronts. Advertisement The Hungarian talent made 52 tackles, 38 blocks and 45 interceptions in the Premier League. He even distributed the ball relatively well based on his pass completion rate of 75.8% in the English top tier (stats via His current contract at the English club will run out in the summer of 2028. Thus, the Reds would do well to lure him away from the Vitality Stadium this off-season. BOURNEMOUTH, ENGLAND – MARCH 15: Milos Kerkez of AFC Bournemouth prepares to shoot whilst under pressure from Kristoffer Ajer of Brentford during the Premier League match between AFC Bournemouth and Brentford FC at Vitality Stadium on March 15, 2025 in Bournemouth, England. (Photo by) Is Kerkez A Decent Signing For Liverpool Boss Arne Slot? Kerkez is a good tackler of the ball and can time his challenges well to earn possession back for his team inside his half. He doesn't mind clearing his lines when the opposition are on the front foot and can make some driving runs with the ball on the left flank. Advertisement The Hungarian sensation can chip in by scoring and creating his fair share of goals and is a good crosser of the ball as well. Kerkez mainly operates as a left-back but can also fill in as a left-sided wide player if required. We can expect him to bring more quality and depth to Liverpool head coach Arne Slot's defence. He has what it takes to rival Andrew Robertson for a regular first-team place at Anfield next season. At 21, Kerkez has got a lot of room to grow as a footballer. Hence, he would be a great signing for the Reds in the long run. Kerkez might even help the Merseyside club compete for a lot of major silverware over the next decade. He knows the Premier League and won't take much time to settle into life at Liverpool.
