Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez has linked his move away from the club at the end of the season, with the Hungarian defender on the radars of Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea.
According to TBR Football, the player representatives have reached out to Arsenal and Chelsea regarding potential moves, but Liverpool is currently in pole position to secure his signature.
Liverpool desperately needs a quality left-back, and the 21-year-old will be a solid, long-term acquisition for them. The defender has proven himself with Cherry in the Premier League and he is certainly enough to play for a bigger club.
He could be the ideal long-term alternative for Andrew Robertson, who is clearly in decline. Scotland International is a shadow of his former self, and his error-prone performance has cost Liverpool this season. If they are serious about fighting for major trophies next year, they will need an upgrade.
Meanwhile, the Hungarian defender is valued at £50 million, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool is willing to pay.
Arsenal and Chelsea pushed Keene to Milos Kerkez
Arsenal could also use a quality left-back, and the 21-year-old could replace Oleksandr Zinchenko, who has linked summer moves from the club.
As far as Chelsea is concerned, they have Mark Kukulera, Renato Beiga and Ben Chilwell in their books. It will be interesting to see if they are ready to remove multiple players to make a way for the Hungarians. Veiga and Chilwell were not important players at the club and were able to move into the summer.
Meanwhile, Kerquez will want to play for a big club and fight for the main trophy. It would be interesting to see where he ends.
