Real Madrid Confidencial Liverpool cashes in on Carreras's signing by Real Madrid, express move
The Anfield team has pursued the signing of Milos Kerkez, a former target of Madrid, and has made progress in the negotiations
Real Madrid has completed the express signing of Álvaro Carreras. The young left-back arrives from Benfica and will play an important role in the rotation of the white team. However, this move has not only had repercussions in the Madrid club.
Liverpool has reacted quickly. Taking advantage of Real Madrid's focus on Carreras, the "reds" have accelerated talks to sign Milos Kerkez, Bournemouth's left-back. The Hungarian has been on the white team's radar for weeks, but with Carreras already at Bernabéu, the focus has shifted.
Talks between Liverpool and Bournemouth are underway. The interest is serious. Negotiations are progressing well, and in England, it is assumed that the agreement could be finalized soon, as Fabrizio Romano points out.
Kerkez, a priority target for Arne Slot
Kerkez is one of the most promising young full-backs in the Premier League. At just 21 years old, he has excelled at Bournemouth this season. His physical strength, offensive projection, and competitive character make him ideal for Arne Slot's style.
The Dutchman wants to strengthen the full-backs as soon as possible. The sports management has identified Kerkez as a priority for the left side, where more depth and youth are sought.
Frimpong, another former target of Madrid
But it is not the only case. Liverpool has also taken advantage of the situation on the right flank. With Real Madrid taking Trent Alexander-Arnold, the "reds" have sought a high-level alternative.
The target is Jeremie Frimpong. The Bayer Leverkusen full-back has been linked to Real Madrid during the last transfer windows.
However, the operation never materialized. Now it is Liverpool who takes the lead.
Frimpong has been a key piece in Xabi Alonso's scheme. His speed, dribbling ability, and defensive solidity make him a modern and very complete full-back. Liverpool has already initiated contacts with the player's entourage.
The market moves quickly. Liverpool doesn't want to be left behind. The strategy is clear: take advantage of Real Madrid's moves to strengthen both flanks.
Carreras to Bernabéu... and Kerkez and Frimpong, possible reinforcements for the "reds".
