Milos Kerkez, a reported Liverpool target, has expressed admiration for Dominik Szoboszlai following the Hungarian midfielder’s standout performance in the 4-1 victory against Ipswich.

Szoboszlai, who opened the scoring in the clash at Anfield, played a key role in Liverpool’s latest triumph, helping them maintain the six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table. That marked three wins in the span of a week for Arne Slot's side, following victories over Brentford in the Premier League and Lille in the Champions League.

Despite facing some criticism earlier in the season, Szoboszlai’s display at Anfield has drawn widespread praise.

Szoboszlai took to Instagram to reflect on his recent successes, writing, “It wasn’t a bad week.” Among those to comment was Kerkez, who responded with “motivated you my brother,” further solidifying their strong connection. Harvey Elliott also joined in, leaving a pair of fire emojis on Szoboszlai’s post.

As both players are teammates for the Hungarian national team, it’s no surprise they share a close bond, with Kerkez offering his support and encouragement to the midfielder.

Kerkez’s latest social media activity is only adding fuel to the rumors surrounding a potential move to Merseyside despite him saying he will not join the Reds a few hours earlier.

This isn’t the first time Kerkez has interacted with Szoboszlai on Instagram this season, highlighting the strong friendship between the two Hungarians. This connection could work in Liverpool's favor if they pursue a move for Kerkez in the transfer market.

With Andy Robertson facing some struggles, Liverpool will be looking to bolster their left-back position sooner rather than later. Kerkez, showcasing his growing potential, could be an ideal candidate to step in and provide valuable depth to the squad.

It’s increasingly likely that Liverpool will make a move for the 21-year-old, who has emerged as one of the league’s most in-form left-backs. With his impressive performances this season, the young defender is becoming a key target for the Reds.
