The Reds are wasting no time in the transfer market as they prepare to defend their league title. Despite losing Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid, Arne Slot’s side is making swift moves to strengthen the squad. ..Continue Reading
Jeremie Frimpong has already been lined up as Alexander-Arnold’s replacement, with the Bayer Leverkusen defender set to join on a pre-arranged fee.
Liverpool are also leading the race to sign Frimpong’s teammate Florian Wirtz, with the playmaker expected to cost a club-record amount.
Another priority for Liverpool is reinforcing the left-back position, as Andy Robertson, now in his early thirties, may need a successor.
One of the standout left-backs in the Premier League this season has been Milos Kerkez, who has impressed at AFC Bournemouth with his goal contributions and assists, helping the club achieve a record points tally.
Bournemouth are reportedly seeking a significant transfer fee for Kerkez, and while a deal between the clubs has yet to be finalized, reports suggest that personal terms have already been agreed.
Romano said on his YouTube channel: “My information is Milos Kerkez already has an agreement of personal terms with Liverpool.It’s just about more small details to be verified then Liverpool are in contact with Bournemouth. Liverpool are still working on this one.
“Not only Wirtz, not only Frimpong but active conversations for Kerkez and, this week, the conversations will continue to get the deal done. Liverpool are really busy, very active and what they’re doing is something impressive.
“Now it’s about verifying the final fee for Bournemouth but the conversation is advanced, is going well so Liverpool have a big part of the start of the summer. “
Kerkez helped Bournemouth sign off the season with a 2-0 win over Leicester City. It meant that he started every league match for the Cherries, who also reached the FA Cup quarter-finals.
The 21-year-old took to social media and conceded that he ‘doesn’t know what will happen’ in the imminent future which suggests he could be on the move.
Kerkez posted on Instagram: “38 games,38 started ,we finished the job and broke the record,thanks to the fans and everyone for support,thanks to the gaffer for trusting me to start all 38 games and special thanks to the one above for keeping me safe and healthy and of course nothing would be possible without my family,I don’t know what will happen in next week but cherries family thank you!”
