Liverpool boosted by early Kerkez return
5 Oct
Summary
- Milos Kerkez returns early from international duty.
- He received a yellow card in Hungary's win.
- Kerkez will miss his next international match due to suspension.
Liverpool's squad will benefit from the early return of defender Milos Kerkez following international duty. Kerkez, who has been a regular starter for Liverpool under Andoni Iraola, will be available for the upcoming Premier League fixture against Manchester City on October 11th.
Kerkez featured prominently in Hungary's recent 1-0 UEFA Nations League victory over Georgia on Friday night. However, his participation in the next international match will be suspended due to accumulating a second yellow card within three games. Consequently, the Hungarian Football Federation has confirmed his departure from the national squad, allowing him to rejoin Liverpool sooner.
This early return is a welcome development for Liverpool, particularly given the ongoing international break. Kerkez has been a key player, starting four of Liverpool's five Premier League matches this season and completing 90 minutes in three of them. The expectation is that he will continue in his role at left-back for the highly anticipated confrontation with Manchester City.
