Arsenal & Chelsea interested in Bournemouth defender

Kerkez wanted by Arsenal & Chelsea

Arsenal & Chelsea interested in Bournemouth defender

12 June 2024 - 21:02

Arsenal and Chelsea are interested in signing Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez this summer, according to Ben Jacobs.

  • Chelsea want to sign Lyon star to replace Jadon Sancho
  • Arsenal want to bring Aymeric Laporte back to England

  • The Gunners are currently evaluating their options in the left-back department with the prospect of Jakub Kiwior and Oleksandr Zinchenko leaving the club.

    Kerkez has emerged as a serious option for them, according to Jacobs, but the Gunners are not alone with the Blues also interested in his services.

    Chelsea currently have Ben Chilwell, Marc Cucurella and Ian Maatsen in their left-back ranks, but the latter is expected to be sold soon.

    Chilwell has also been injury-prone over the years and there is a possibility that the club could open the door for his departure as well.

    This has put Kerkez on their radar, but the Cherries appear reluctant to part ways with the young Hungarian during the ongoing summer.

    The South Coast outfit only signed him last year and they prefer to keep him in their squad due to his potential and future transfer value.
