Liverpool have officially secured the signing of highly-rated left-back Milos Kerkez, strengthening their squad ahead of the upcoming season.
The 21-year-old Hungarian international joins on a long-term deal following an impressive spell at AZ Alkmaar, where his energetic runs, solid defending, and attacking contributions earned him acclaim across Europe.
The Reds acted swiftly to land Kerkez as part of manager Arne Slot’s summer rebuild. The club released an official statement saying:
“Liverpool Football Club is pleased to confirm the signing of Milos Kerkez. The talented full-back joins from AZ Alkmaar and will immediately integrate with the first-team squad as preparations for the new season begin.”
Kerkez shared his excitement after completing the move:
“I’m really looking forward to wearing the Liverpool jersey and playing at Anfield,” he said. “This is a club with an incredible history and passionate fans, and I’m ready to give my all every time I’m on the pitch.”
Kerkez, known for his speed, energy, and technical ability both in the Eredivisie and with the Hungarian national team, will provide valuable depth and competition at left-back — an area Liverpool had prioritized for strengthening.
Fans have flooded social media with excitement, welcoming the new signing and looking forward to seeing how the young defender fits into Arne Slot’s plans for a challenging season ahead
