Liverpool are set for a big summer of spending, with Milos Kerkez one player who is believed to be wanted by the Reds.

The AFC Bournemouth defender has been one of the breakout stars in the Premier League this season with Kerkez playing a key role in Andoni Iraola’s system that has put the Cherries in the picture for a European spot.

As a result, Liverpool are now interested in signing Kerkez, with the £50m-rated left-back quickly becoming one of the most in-demand youngsters in England after a string of impressive performances for Bournemouth.

And Ian Wright has now sent a clear message surrounding Kerkez’s future this summer amid ongoing interest from Liverpool.

Speaking on Wrighty’s House, the pundit urged top Premier League teams to move for Kerkez after the defender’s incredible assist for Bournemouth in their 2-2 draw against Tottenham over the weekend.

Troy Deeney also lauded Kerkez with the former Watford captain stating that he’s not surprised the likes of Liverpool are interested in signing the Hungarian international, and Wright has now joined in on the hype train.

The former Arsenal striker said about Kerkez: “If anybody has any doubts of this man’s quality, just watch the cross against Tottenham.

The thing that will people will say is: ‘Well look how much time and space he had.’

“The fact is, to have that much time and space and then still go, no, I’m not going to carry it anymore, I can see Tavernier trying to get on the back of Djed Spence at the back and I’m going to curl this 25 yards right onto his foot with time and space in front of me, is a skill that people do not appreciate.

I would buy him off of that pass alone.”

Kerkez is set to be a man in demand this summer with many top clubs likely to look at the Bournemouth defender as a potential option to solve their issues at left-back, with Liverpool’s case arguably the most severe.

Which is why calls for the Reds to move for the Serbian-born talent have been as high as they have been, with Jamie Carragher also urging Liverpool to move for Kerkez with the former Anfield star a big fan of the fullback.

Indeed, Liverpool’s interest in Kerkez will be a fascinating storyline to follow this summer, and all signs seem to point towards the Reds making a move for the Bournemouth defender if the finances are there at the end of the season.
