"Contacts are expected to follow and continue in the next months; Liverpool's interest is genuine and concrete, as the 'world-class' Kerkez is attracted by Champions League football for his future and there's a chance to make the deal happen this summer.

"Now we wait for the next weeks to understand when and how the contacts will continue."
