Bournemouth close to Milos Kerkez signing

Milos Kerkez is on the verge of being a Bournemouth player with the Cherries set to beat the competition to sign the 19-year-old.

The AZ left-back, who had a breakout season in the Eredivisie last year, was close to moving to Serie A side Lazio but is now close to moving to the Premier League. Kerkez had previously been linked with the likes of Benfica, Newcastle United, and Borussia Dortmund.

Various reports suggest that the Hungary international has already agreed terms with Bournemouth with the transfer now to be finalised by the two clubs with a fee believed to be in the region of £20 million.

Kerkez would be the Cherries’ fourth signing of the summer with the club having already completed deals for Justin Kluivert, Hamed Traorè, and Romain Faivre.
