It is a testament to how impressive Milos Kerkez has been this season that he has been linked with a move to Liverpool and the speculation does not seem to raise eyebrows amongst fans and pundits alike.
David Ornstein claimed Liverpool could genuinely sign Kerkez as well, which is exciting news for Reds supporters worldwide.
Arne Slot apparently personally wants to sign Kerkez and the Dutchman justifiably seems to rate the Hungarian international highly.
Milos Kerkez ticks virtually every single box as a signing for Slot’s side as he is just 21, Premier League-proven and solves the problem of succeeding an ageing Andy Robertson, 31.
How Liverpool internally Kerkez has come to light.
Liverpool believe Milos Kerkez could be an amazing signing
Theo Walcott thinks Liverpool could sign Kerkez as the reports surrounding his potential move continue to rise by the day.
On the pitch, the youngster has certainly proven for AFC Bournemouth that he is a top left-back in the making.
The former AZ Alkmaar wonderkid is a brilliant crosser of the ball, athletic, strong and a bankable defender. While Troy Deeney thinks Kerkez is “exceptional” and “one of the best left-backs in the world” — signifying how highly-rated he is.
Fabrizio Romano told GiveMeSport’s show, Market Madness that first and foremost, there is a good chance that they could sign Kerkez: “I think it’s a good possibility. It’s not something guaranteed, it’s not something close or advanced at this stage, it’s still early so you know, it’s going to take some weeks or months before we understand where he’s heading but for sure, Liverpool are interested in Milos Kerkez.”
Romano added that Liverpool think Kerkez is very professional and a player who could benefit them in the present as well as in the future: “He’s a player who they like, Richard Hughes, Liverpool director had the player at Bournemouth so he knows him so well, not just in terms of how good he is on the pitch but also how good and professional he is off the pitch and for Liverpool is something absolutely important. Then, the potential of this boy, Liverpool are convinced that he is really one for the present but also for the future eventually.”

Milos Kerkez’s brother suggests Reds move is on
Kerkez has won seven games alongside Dominik Szoboszlai, who is his Hungarian teammate and has shown that one can indeed succeed at a club of the stature of Liverpool.
But ultimately, the decision lies in the in-demand defender’s hands.
On the surface, the Cherries star has every reason to be keen on a move to Merseyside as they are the best team in the Premier League.
Interestingly, Kerkez’s brother liked a Liverpool-related post about his sibling heading to Anfield.
Players and their entourages often take such steps to suggest their minds about potential transfers are made up and that could be the case in this instance as well.
