Liverpool Complete £45 Million Signing of Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth
Liverpool have completed the signing of Hungarian left-back Milos Kerkez from AFC Bournemouth in a £45 million deal. The 21-year-old has penned a five-year contract at Anfield, committing his future to the club until June 2030.
Kerkez caught the eye with an impressive Premier League debut campaign at Bournemouth, earning admirers across Europe with his blistering pace, combative style, and composure beyond his years. Liverpool moved decisively to fend off interest from several domestic and continental rivals, making him one of the club’s most exciting additions of the summer.
With Andy Robertson now in his thirties and left-back options depleted by injuries in recent seasons, Kerkez offers both immediate competition for a starting spot and a long-term successor in the role.
Speaking after the transfer was announced, the Hungary international said:
“It’s a dream come true to join a club like Liverpool. The history, the fans, the winning mentality — everything about this club is incredible. I can’t wait to play at Anfield and fight for trophies.”
Liverpool’s sporting director also hailed the move, commenting:
“Milos is a player we’ve tracked for some time. His energy, technical skill, and commitment fit perfectly with our philosophy. At just 21, he’s got immense potential and we believe he’ll thrive here.”
Kerkez will wear the No. 21 jersey and is expected to link up with his new teammates immediately for pre-season preparations. Supporters are already eager to see the dynamic left-back in action as Liverpool look to defend their Premier League title and challenge for European honors once again.
