It takes their summer spending past £200m after already buying Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen for £145.5m combined, plus goalkeepers Giorgi Mamardashvili and Armin Pecsi.

Much of that fee is inflated by the arrival of Florian Wirtz for £116m, but it is a statement summer window from the Premier League champions that they are out to keep their crown.

Kerkez, 21, was one of the standout left backs in Europe last season and Liverpool wanted him to upgrade the position with Andy Robertson now 31 and in talks over an exit.
