This would be a great signing.
Liverpool are reportedly closing in on one of the best young talents in the Premier League according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.
He says that they have agreed personal terms with Bournemouth left-back, Milos Kerkez.
The 21-year-old Serbian started all 38 league games for the Cherries this season, helping them to an impressive ninth-place finish.
It would be a great coup for the champions who look odds on to snag Bayer Leverkusen star, Florian Wirtz.
On his YouTube channel, Romano said: “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’ latest Instagram post also hinted that he may be on the way out.
He wrote: “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!”
