£16m player compared to Gareth Bale is keen to join Liverpool and Arne Slot wants him

Liverpool did not make a signing during the winter transfer window – but the summer could be different.

Arne Slot saw no need to alter his Liverpool squad – who currently sit top of the Premier League🐷 – as the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham all made new additions.

Despite that, Liverpool are🉐 expected to be busier in the summer transfer window, with a few areas of the side in need of freshening up, particularly the left-back department.

Andy Robertson is struggling🀅 and seems to be past his best, while Kostas Tsimikas has also failed to do much better when deputising for the Scotland international.

As a result, Bournemouth No.3 Milos Kerkez𓂃 is a target for Liverpool – and the Reds have now been told he is interested in a move to Anfield.

𝓀A story from now states that the Hungary international is a fan of what Slot is doing at Liverpool – and would be interested in joining this summer.

🍸The report claims that the feeling is mutual, as Kerkez is a target for Liverpool – iNews add that his Bournemouth teammate Dean Huijsen could also make the move to Anfield.

🐼So far this season, the Hungarian has arguably been the best left-back in the Premier League as Bournemouth experience a special season, sitting fifth in the table partly thanks to two goals and three assists in 25 appearances from the defender.

Liverpool could sign the new Gareth Bale

♊The 21-year-old has shown tremendous attacking qualities this season, particularly at St James’ Park where he netted a fantastic goal against Newcastle.

൲These skills have seen the Vrbas-born defender be compared to Gareth Bale by Italian news outlet .

﷽Given the Welshman went on to win five UEFA Champions League titles and retired as one of the greatest players of his generation, that is quite the comparison for Kerkez to earn at the age of just 21.

However, Manchester United also like Kerkez♊, so Liverpool will face competition for his signature this summer.
