Arsenal keen to sign £40 million Bournemouth star Milos Kerkez

Milkel Arteta wants to add quality depth at left back, and Arsenal has been linked to a deal for a new left back before the summer. The Gunners manager wants to start left-back Jurrien Timber, who was signed in the summer, as his starting left-back for the upcoming campaign; thus, Oleksandr Zinchenko might be traded.

Manchester United and Chelsea are also interested in Bournemouth player Milos Kerkez, whom Arsenal has added to their list of left-back prospects. Given that Milos Kerkez is valued at £40 million and a standout for Bournemouth, HITC reports that Arsenal is considering a summer transfer for the player. Since Mikel Arteta may try to persuade the Hungarian left-back, Manchester United and Chelsea have also shown interest.

Left back Milos Kerkez unsettled at Bournemouth as asking price is set

During an interview with the Transfers Podcast, Castles revealed that Bournemouth might be looking to offload some players this summer. Although they don’t want to lose the young player, there are some signs that he might be headed elsewhere.

The £40 million-rated Kerkez is coming off a fantastic season with Bournemouth, where he came from AZ Alkmaar in the Netherlands last summer. The Hungarian international, who has been brilliant for his country at the Euros, might be drawn to Arsenal. His name could soon be mentioned in the transfer rumours mill.

Premier League teams will likely attempt to haggle over the price to something reasonable, but Bournemouth is expected to stick with something around £40 million, which means they will profit handsomely from their investment in the 20-year-old.
