Premier League
Liverpool faces a crucial summer to strengthen its left side after a season full of defensive doubts. The Anfield team, Premier League champions in 2024-25, now sees its balance affected by mistakes that have resulted in defeats.
Liverpool and the new era with Milos Kerkez
Milos Kerkez's arrival at Liverpool was one of the most talked about last summer: £40 million from Bournemouth, with a five-year contract.
His dynamic and offensive profile matched the team's style of play, but the first weeks have shown ups and downs. In a crucial match, he was substituted after only 38 minutes due to poor performance.
Analyses show that Kerkez offers drive and assists, although he still lacks defensive solidity. His full adaptation to Liverpool's pace is still uncertain.
Liverpool evaluates Andrew Robertson's farewell
Veteran Andrew Robertson has been with the club for over a decade, and his contract expires in 2026. Despite his continued performance, his prominence has decreased.
With Kerkez as a future alternative, Liverpool is considering not renewing Robertson's contract and moving on from an era. This transition poses a key point for the club.
The combination of senior experience like Robertson and fresh air with Kerkez could set the new model for the left flank at Anfield.

Balance and projection of the left-back position at Liverpool
The convergence of Kerkez and Robertson confirms that Liverpool recognizes the need to transform the left side. Kerkez represents the future gamble, while Robertson symbolizes the recent past.
The Anfield coaching staff has emphasized that Kerkez's "growth phase" is underway and that Robertson remains important but not eternal.
Liverpool between urgency and reinvention
The current scenario demands that Liverpool act without delay. The need for defensive stability and long-term solutions on the left flank is evident.
The lack of freshness has sometimes translated into complex campaigns even after being champions. Therefore, the club seriously considers the left side as a market priority.
The inconsistent performance and four consecutive defeats have raised alarms.
Liverpool knows it needs a left-back who combines physicality, projection, and tactical experience to complement its modern defense.
The sports leadership is determined: this summer, the left side of Liverpool will be one of the focal points of a strategic operation that will define the next competitive cycle.
In short, Liverpool faces a process of change on the left side where Milos Kerkez may play a leading role and Andrew Robertson approaches his departure. The transition between both figures will be crucial for the club to maintain its status within the Premier League.
