Liverpool is reportedly very likely to sell Kostas Tsimikas this summer, a move that could influence the possible signing of Milos Kerkez.
According to recent reports from Fabrizio Romano and others, Liverpool have been in negotiations to bring Kerkez from Bournemouth this summer.
Below is Romano’s latest update on Liverpool’s potential acquisition of the Hungarian international…
Further news, which appears to improve Liverpool’s chances of reshaping their left-back position, suggests that Tsimikas has an 80-85% probability of departing Anfield this summer.
This information comes from Lewis Steele of the Mail, shared in the YouTube video linked below…
Is Liverpool preparing for a left-back overhaul?
Steele commented: “There have been numerous reports that Tsimikas might leave this summer, and it certainly seems quite likely. I’d estimate there’s around an 80-85% chance he’ll go.
“He hasn’t been consistently outstanding, but he’s somewhat of a cult hero and well-liked within the squad. It’ll be sad to see him leave, but if Liverpool sign Kerkez, it feels like the right moment.”
Milos Kerkez would be an excellent addition for Liverpool
Liverpool have had a strong start to the summer, officially announcing the signing of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen yesterday.
The Dutch right-back seems like a perfect replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, who is moving to Real Madrid sooner than expected to participate in the Club World Cup.
At the same time, Liverpool are pursuing the ambitious signing of Florian Wirtz, according to The Athletic, and Kerkez could serve as a significant upgrade over both Andrew Robertson and Tsimikas at left-back.
Bournemouth is expected to attract interest for several of their key players this summer, with Dean Huijsen already departing, while others like Antoine Semenyo may also draw attention.
