Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez has been linked with a move away from the English club at the end of the season and they are on the radar of Spanish giants Real Madrid.
According to a report from Fichajes, Real Madrid are interested in signing the 21-year-old Premier League left back and they will face competition from Liverpool. Apparently, Liverpool are leading the chase for the Hungarian international, and it will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.
It is no secret that Liverpool need to bring in a quality left back at the end of the season. Andrew Robertson has been a shadow of his former self in recent months and he will need to be replaced adequately at the end of the season. Signing one of the most talented young left backs in the league would be a wise decision from Liverpool. It remains to be seen whether they can secure an agreement with the Cherries.
Liverpool sporting director, Richard Hughes, brought the player to England during his time at Bournemouth, and he might be able to facilitate a move to Liverpool now. In addition to that, Liverpool have Dominik Szoboszlai at their disposal, and the Hungarian International might be able to convince his compatriot to join him at the English club.
Can Real Madrid win the race?
The talented young defender will want to compete at the highest level and the likes of Real Madrid and Liverpool will be exciting opportunities for him. It will be interesting to see where he ends up. At Real Madrid, he will be the long-term replacement for Ferland Mendy, who has been quite mediocre. It remains to be seen what the player decides. Both clubs have the financial resources to get the deal done and they could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies regularly.
Real Madrid are widely regarded as the biggest club in the world and the opportunity to join them can be hard to turn down for any player. It remains to be seen whether they can convince the 21-year-old to snub a move to Liverpool and move to Spanish football at the end of the season.
