Liverpool have been linked with a move for the Fulham defender Antonee Robinson in recent months.
According to football insider, they have reservations about a move for the Fulham defender and they have already lined up an alternative. They are keeping tabs on the Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez.
Robinson is at the peak of his powers and he is 27. He is playing his best football right now, but it seems that Liverpool are looking to bring in someone who can be a key member of their squad for the foreseeable future. The Hungarian would be a younger alternative. He has shown his quality in the Premier League and he could prove to be a quality long term acquisition.
Liverpool need to find a quality long term replacement for Andrew Robertson who has not been at his best for a while. The Scottish international has looked like a shadow of his former self and he will need to be replaced adequately.
The 21-year-old Bournemouth defender would be an exceptional acquisition in the long term. He could replace the Scottish international and establish himself as a key player for the club.
Can Liverpool sign Kerkez?
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. The Bournemouth defender is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition and he could cost a substantial amount of money. That said, convincing the player to join should not be difficult for Liverpool. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and any player would be attracted to the idea of joining them. In addition to that, Liverpool have Dominik Szoboszlai at their disposal and he could play a key role in convincing his compatriot to move to Anfield.
As far as Robinson is concerned, he has proven himself to be one of the best left backs in the league and he will want to join a big club soon. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool are prepared to provide him with an exit route. He has been linked with other clubs as well and there will not be any shortage of suitors for the United states international in the summer.
