Man Utd & Liverpool chasing Premier League left-back

Kerkez wanted by EPL giants

Man Utd & Liverpool chasing Premier League left-back

27 November 2024 - 20:29

Manchester United and Liverpool are both interested in signing Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez at the end of the campaign.

  • Chelsea eyeing summer deal for Ecuadorian star
  • Chelsea make final transfer decision on Cole Palmer
  • The Red Devils currently have Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as their specialist left-back options, but both have been injury prone.

    New manager Ruben Amorim has urged the hierarchy to land a replacement and Kerkez is said to be perfect for the left wing-back role.

    Amorim prefers to play with a 3-4-2-1 system and Kerkez would be a suitable acquisition due to his defensive skills and overlapping runs.

    United are bound to face competition from arch-rivals Liverpool, who are looking for an upgrade on Robertson, who has regressed.

    The Cherries are aware of the ever-increasing interest in their starlet and they are expected to demand at least £50m to sanction his exit.

    United and Liverpool are capable of meeting the price, provided the Cherries are willing to accept staggered payments for a deal.

    Kerkez has also been linked with Serie A giants Juventus, but the Hungarian will most likely prefer to continue in England.
