After securing Florian Wirtz, Liverpool are reportedly very confident that they will complete another key signing in their summer transfer window. The club is close to finalizing a deal for Bournemouth’s left-back Milos Kerkez, with sources saying the transfer should be completed within days.
Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg has revealed that Liverpool and the Hungarian defender have already reached a verbal agreement, and the club expects to finalize the move soon.
The official announcement of Kerkez’s transfer is anticipated to come shortly after Liverpool officially confirm the high-profile signing of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. Wirtz, the German midfielder, will be introduced first as the club’s record signing before focus shifts to wrapping up the Kerkez deal.
Plettenberg posted the latest update on his X account, stating:
“Liverpool are fully confident the transfer of Milos #Kerkez will happen. It will be completed once Florian Wirtz has signed and been presented. A verbal agreement between #LFC and Kerkez is already in place.”
