Liverpool have completed the £40million signing of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez on a five-year contract. Kerkez, who links up with fellow Hungary international Dominik Szoboszlai at Anfield, is viewed as the long-term successor to Andy Robertson.
Kerkez made 74 appearances for Bournemouth after joining from AZ Alkmaar two years ago and has been shortlisted for the 2024-25 PFA Young Player of the Year award.
Liverpool new boy Kerkez said: “I’m really happy. It’s a real honour for me, a privilege to come to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world, (the) biggest club in England. I’m just really, really happy and excited.
“After this, I’ll go home and in my hometown enjoy a few days, and then I can’t really wait to come back and put the training kit on and start to train and prepare for the season.”
Kerkez becomes the fifth player to join Liverpool this summer. The Reds quickly snapped Jeremie Frimpong to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold before the window was even officially open.

And he was joined last week by his former Leverkusen team-mate Florian Wirtz. The Reds will spend a total of £116million on Wirtz if the 22-year-old hits both individual and team targets - which would make it a British record, eclipsing Moises Caicedo's £115m move from Brighton to Chelsea.
The club have also added Armin Pecsi from Puskas Akademia. The 20-year-old goalkeeper put pen to paper on Saturday and was among the nominees for the 2025 Golden Boy award.
And the arrival of Giorgi Mamardashvili is imminent too with Liverpool having agreed a transfer with Valencia almost 12 months ago. The Georgian's pending arrival gave the club confidence to finally part ways with Caoimhin Kelleher, who joined Brentford in an £18m deal.
