Milos Kerkez has quickly made a name for himself in the Premier League, impressing with his energy, defensive intelligence, and attacking contributions. At just 21 years old, he already displays qualities that suggest he has a bright future ahead. His performances have sparked speculation about his next move, with many linking him to a potential transfer to a top club like Liverpool. Given Liverpool’s possible need for reinforcements at left-back, the rumors have only intensified.
Andy Robertson remains one of the league’s best in his position, but injuries have disrupted his season. Kostas Tsimikas has stepped in when required, yet doubts persist over whether he is the long-term solution. With Liverpool always planning for the future, adding a young, dynamic full-back could be a priority in the upcoming transfer window. Kerkez’s aggressive style, pace, and ability to thrive in a high-pressing system align well with Arne Slot’s tactical approach, making him a strong candidate should Liverpool enter the market for a left-back.
Beyond his on-field attributes, his close friendship with Dominik Szoboszlai has fueled speculation among fans. The Hungarian duo already shares a strong bond, and supporters have begun to imagine the possibility of them linking up at Anfield. While the idea excites many, the question remains whether there is any substance to the rumors or if it is purely fan-driven speculation.
When asked about the possibility of joining Liverpool and playing alongside Szoboszlai, Kerkez made it clear that his current focus remains on Bournemouth. “I’m just focused on playing and winning as many games as possible with my team,” he stated when speaking to Nemzeti Sport. While acknowledging that football is unpredictable, he dismissed any immediate plans to leave. “A lot can happen in football, but it’s pointless to predict.”
Pressed further on whether he could envision a future alongside Szoboszlai at Liverpool, he responded cautiously. “It wouldn’t look bad, that’s for sure. But it’s too early to talk about something like that,” he admitted, while reaffirming his commitment to Bournemouth. “I have big goals with Bournemouth. We still have a lot of games to win, that’s the most important thing right now.”
His bond with Szoboszlai is no secret. After a recent league match, the two posed for a photo together, and Szoboszlai even joked about their friendship in an interview. “We get along really well off the field, I try to pay attention to him because he needs attention, poor thing,” Szoboszlai said with a laugh. He also shared a lighthearted remark about their national team duties. “I told him that you can slip up on anyone, but not me, because we both need the national team.”
For now, Kerkez remains focused on his current club, and his priority is helping Bournemouth succeed. However, given his talent and ambition, speculation about his future will likely continue. If Liverpool eventually makes a move, it wouldn’t come as a surprise, but for now, his only concern is delivering strong performances in the Premier League.
