It has been widely reported that discussions between Liverpool and Bournemouth for the left-back have taken over a possible deal worth £45m. Interestingly, the Cherries appear to have opened the door for Kerkez to leave having signed a like-for-like replacement in Adrien Truffert from Ligue 1 outfit Rennes.

Bournemouth's transfer activity appears to have paved the way for Liverpool to sign highly-rated left-back Milos Kerkez.
