Liverpool didn’t do anything in the January transfer window, but it could be a busy summer for the Reds.

Indeed, Liverpool have work to do in the summer.

The Reds tried to sign Martin Zubimendi last year, but that deal didn’t go through, so Arne Slot’s side should have some cash to spend.

Jamie Carragher wants Liverpool to sign a lef꧅t-𒆙back, and speaking to the BBC, Theo Walcott has suggested one potential target for Liverpool.

Indeed, Walcott was asked to name the five most promising young players in the Premier League, and he said that Milos Kerkez is a player he really likes.

While praisi🧸ng Kerkez, Walcott suggested that the Hungarian is a player Liverpool could look at.

Liverpool could look at Milos Kerkez

Walco🐬tt spoke about Kerkez and the promise he is showing as a🌞 player.

The pundit spoke highly of the Bournemouth star, and he suggested that Liverpool could ꦉlook at the man.

“Milos Kerkez, he’s a player I would’ve hated to come up against because he can defend and he can also attack, good pace. I’m sure Liverpool will be looking for a left-back at some point to replace Ro☂bertson,” Walcott said.

Walcott suggested Kerkez for Liverpool, and that’s not 🅠the first time we’ve heard this suggestion made.

Indeed, Jamie Carragher has tipped Kerkez to join Live෴rpool to, while there have been some concrete links♑ between Liverpool and Kerkez as well.

Kerkez is keen to join Liverpool accord📖ing to some reports, and, as Walcott says, this could be a very good signing.

Andy Robertson has been criticised for his performances this season, and Liverpool certainly could do with a player l😼ike Kerkez.

Bournemouth may havওe lost to Liverpool at the weekend, but Kerkez put in a performance that showed why he’s such a coveted footballer right now.

Kerkez wasn’t brilli💫ant on the day, but he was full of energy, and he did what he could to repel Arne Slot’s side.

Unfortu൲nately, it wasn’t enough to keep Mohamed Salah and co at bay, but it was a valiant effort from Kerkez on Saturday.
