Liverpool are on the cusp of winning the Premier League title this season, but work is underway behind the scenes to bolster Arne Slot’s squad. It appears one of the top targets for the Reds is closing in on a transfer in the upcoming transfer window.
Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are working hard to line up targets and hold talks with representatives and intermediaries ahead of the start of the summer transfer window.
The Liverpool manager is looking to revamp his squad and is pushing to bring in several new players into his set-up ahead of the start of the 2025/26 season.
The Merseyside giants have prioritised several key positions, and have an idea about their top target. One of those players seems to be closing in on a transfer.
Can you name the team Liverpool sold these players to?
The Reds are closing in on a top target
Milos Kerkez has been on Liverpool’s radar for a few months, and the club have been working on a deal to sign him in the summer transfer window.
The left-back is expected to leave Bournemouth at the end of the season, and according to the Mirror, the Cherries have taken one more step closer to selling him.
They have already started looking at alternatives and are preparing to bring in a replacement for the Hungarian in the summer transfer window.
Real Madrid’s Fran Garcia and Wolves’ Hugo Bueno are two players the club are tracking ahead of the next window as a replacement for Kerkez.
Bournemouth also believe that Julio Soler, who joined the club in the winter window, is ready to develop into a first-team starter moving forward.
The Merseyside giants are still divided on whether to sign Kerkez, but he is likely to leave Bournemouth for a fee of £40m in the summer window.
