Defender says YES to Liverpool move | OneFootball

Kerkez is eagerly awaiting his Liverpool move

Liverpool have been closely linked with the Hungarian left-back for some time now, and it is almost inconceivable that anyone else could become the Reds' superior to Andy Robertson.

Personal terms were already reportedly agreed between the player and the club, but this piece of information has been further compounded in the media today.

Fabrizio Romano posted an update to X, further reiterating his information on the negotiations.

He said: "Understand Milos Kerkez has already said 'yes' to Liverpool project, no issues on personal terms. Club to club talks underway with Liverpool also busy on Florian Wirtz deal, but in regular contact with Bournemouth. Deal absolutely on."

Just three days ago on May 25, the player was 'very keen' on the move and 'personal terms were 'not an issue', so what's changed? Well, the answer is essentially that nothing as happened.

The saga with Florian Wirtz has taken precedence in recent days and so the fans have become unsettled by the lack of updates on Kerkez. Such quick transfer business is alien to us.

Once the Reds have someone in their sights, an agreement never takes particularly long, but rarely have we seen the club working on three deals at the same time, especially not four days after the Premier League season has concluded, but such are the circumstances we find ourselves in.

Sunday June 1 is when the summer transfer window officially opens, but it then temporarily closes 10 days later for a six-day period, before it then re-opens on June 16 until September 1. The introduction of FIFA's new Club World Cup has set the off-season activities into a spin.

Liverpool have plenty to do and getting three transfers across the line in the mini-window means there is less likelihood for things to go wrong, with players being swayed elsewhere.

But to confirm, Kerkez is happy to join the Reds. You might see other updates that tell you the same thing in a different phrasing, but that's exactly it. A fee agreement is likely is all that's left.

Jeremie Frimpong - the club is acting with intent this summer, everything is under control.
