According to recent reports, Milos Kerkez, the talented player from AFC Bournemouth, has caught the attention of two of the biggest Premier League clubs, Manchester United and Liverpool. It seems that Bournemouth might have a tough time holding onto their star players during the upcoming transfer window, as they have been performing exceptionally well under the guidance of their manager, Andoni Iraola.
Despite losing their top striker, Dominic Solanke, to Tottenham during the summer, Bournemouth has defied all odds and currently sits at a respectable 12th position in the Premier League, even above Manchester United. They have even managed to secure impressive victories against tough opponents like Manchester City and Arsenal at their home ground, the Vitality Stadium. However, bigger clubs are now eyeing their players, with Chelsea reportedly considering a move for their center-back, Illya Zabarnyi.
Joining the race for Bournemouth's players are Manchester United and Liverpool, who are both hoping to sign the 21-year-old left-back, Milos Kerkez. According to Relevo, both clubs have made initial inquiries, although no concrete talks have taken place yet. But with the transfer window approaching, things could change in the near future.
Bournemouth had paid a hefty fee of around £15.5m to acquire Kerkez from AZ Alkmaar in July 2023. The talented player, who represented Hungary in Euro 2024, has already made 44 appearances for Bournemouth. Interestingly, Kerkez was previously on the books of AC Milan, but he never got the chance to play for their first team.
Kerkez has been a key player for Bournemouth, with his most recent standout performance being in their shocking 2-1 win against Premier League champions Manchester City. After the match, Bournemouth manager Iraola praised Kerkez for his defensive contribution and his ability to finish strong, even when tired. The manager also highlighted the player's growth and his willingness to do whatever it takes for the team's success.
With Manchester United constantly keeping an eye out for talented players, it's no surprise that they have their sights set on Kerkez. However, Bournemouth will surely do their best to retain their star player and continue their strong start to the season. As the transfer window draws closer, all eyes will be on the future of Milos Kerkez and the other top players at Bournemouth.
