This summer Liverpool is leading the race for Bournemouth Left-back Milos Kerkez and the cherries already have a clear idea about who they can sign to replace the Hungarian defender
Bournemouth steps on their pursuit of a new left back while preparing for the departure of Milos Kerkez. Liverpool remains the clear leaders to sign the Hungarian International, who has also attracted admirers in Manchester City.
The Reds of Arne Slot want to sign the competition for Andy Robertson during the low season with Greece International Kostas Tsimikas that would be expected to leave Anfield. The cherries believe that the 20-year-old Julio Soler, an arrival of £ 6.6 million from January from the Argentinian club Lanus, has the potential to become a regular starter under Andoni Iraola in the Vitality Stadium.
His arrival was part of Bournemouth's succession planning and they had surgery with the conviction that Kerkez is destined to switch to Weiden new because of his fine, all-action versions. However, reinforcements at Full-back are still very likely and there are two important goals on the Bournemouth radar.
Real Madrid -Aas Fran Garcia has been checked since December, although the Spaniard could still cost up to £ 20 million. Los Blancos is also linked to Kerkez, but it is still to see whether they will recruit a left back and it is expected to entertain offers for Garcia, provided they are suitable.
Another name of interest is Wolves' Hugo Bueno, who impressed the Champions League this season while he is on loan at Feyenoord in Holland. Wolves are open to keep Bueno this summer, because they expect Rayan Ait-Nouri to be the subject of a strong transfer interest.
Bournemouth's president of football activities Tiago Pinto would also love Maxim de Cuyper from Club Brugge, but Juventus is currently in the box chair for his signature. A fee of £ 40 million has been disputed for Kerkez, but given his enormous range of admirers, there is every chance that the Cherries could entertain a bidding war.
Speaking with athletics, Kerkez recently sketched his desire to play at the highest level and explained: “Yes. As a child you dream to play at the highest level, win the trophies, to be the best teams. These are the things my agent is with and my father is not.
Kerkez scored two goals this season in the Premier League and has also provided five assists. The Hungarian signed at the Lian Sports agency of Fali Ramadani, who also represents Federico Chiesa at the back of 2024, which means that there are already strong relationships with the Anfield -Hierarchy.
