According to Times’ Paul Joyce, Liverpool is about to seal off a contract to sign Milos Kerquez of Bournemouth in the coming days. The overall feeling with all involved parties is that the transfer passes. That means the 21-year-old will soon be joining Anfield’s Hungarian teammate Dominique Zobosilai.
However, Bournemouth is supporting the full £45 million as the two clubs have not reached an agreement over the proposed price, while Liverpool’s sports director Richard Hughes has joined Bournemouth’s own Merseysider, but is still striving to cut the fees.
Kerkez boasts ample pace and drive as Liverpool boss Arne Slot accurately represents the type of player he is looking to add his rank in a wide defensive position. The Premier League champions have already signed Jeremy Fripon from Bayer Leberkusen, and they are said to be trapped in the transfer of their teammates from Florian Wiltz’s Bayarena.
Joyce also reports that Liverpool has not received Luis Diaz’s offer despite recent rumors about Barcelona and Al Nasr’s interest, and they are not trying to sell Colombian wingers.
