Liverpool completing second summer signing as highly-rated Hungarian star to join Reds

Arne Slot will add a number of new faces to his team this summer with deals in the pipeline for Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Armin Pecsi all in the pipeline for Liverpool for Liverpool

Liverpool wants to seal the signing of the Hungarian goalkeeper Armin Pecsi from Puskas Akademia for £ 1.5 million. The 20-year-old stop is seen as one for the future and will play for the Under-21s from the next season.

But he will get opportunities to impress Reds boss Arne Slot with regular training sessions in addition to the first team goalkeeper Alisson Becker and new signing Giorgi Mhamardashvili. It is suggested that his current club, Puskas Akademia, will receive a record compensation for the young Sterret, which will fly to Merseyside in the coming days to formalize his switch.

PECSI is a product of the Academy of Puskas and has been made in all competitions for the club 52 performances, keeping 15 clean sheets. He also clocked five performances in front of Hungary's side under 21.

Pecsi could possibly be the third Hungarian in Liverpool's team next season. The Reds already have Dominik Szoboszlai at their disposal and want to add another player who knows the midfielder fairly well.

The Premier League champions chase a deal for Milos Kerkez: the Bournemouth star was identified as an ideal addition to the defense of Liverpool, although the side of Andoni Iraola reportedly established an asking price of £ 45 million for the left side.

Colleague defender Andy Robertson has already talked about the prospect to be replaced in favor of Kerkez. In conversation with BBC Scotland, he said: “We are not crazy, it seems that a deal may be closed.

“But until that is done, I didn't even give that a second thought. I am back myself. I have faith in my own capacity and that drives me ahead.

“I have had eight fantastic years in Liverpool in terms of winning trophies and being a pillar in the team, which I am incredibly proud of.

“I don't get younger. I can't change my age, but I still believe that I have a lot to give and that is what I concentrate on. I concentrate on myself – you can't concentrate on other people or with whom you are competing.”

Liverpool has already made a supplement to their defense this summer with the signing of Bayer Leverkusen -star Jeremie Frimpong. They still chase his teammate Florian Wirtz, who would probably break the British transfer record if he would also complete a move to Anfield in the coming weeks. Inviting can also be on the agenda, where Federico Chiesa will probably leave.
