Liverpool remain admirers of Bournemouth fullback Milos Kerkez, Fabrizio Romano reports.
The respected reporter shared the update on Monday afternoon – along with news of ‘contact’ made with Alexander Isak’s entourage – several months ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Merseysiders are expected to engage in heavy business at the end of the season, with Arne Slot no doubt keen to shape the squad in his image.

“In the summer I already told you we expect Liverpool to be really busy, because there are several positions to cover,” the transfer news journalist spoke on his YouTube channel.
“At left-back, they love Milos Kerkez, as I keep telling you he’s in the list.
“They’re expecting to bring in a new centre-back, let’s see what happens in the midfield but also up front.”
The Merseysiders have long been linked with Kerkez amid some concerns over the left-back role.
Whilst it would be remiss of us to ignore Andy Robertson’s improved performances in recent weeks, it’s an area we still believe Arne Slot’s side could do with some investment in.
At the very least to potentially upgrade on backup left-back Kostas Tsimikas and pave the way for an updated backline under our Dutch head coach’s supervision.
