Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kerkez.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 38 → 29). Over the 5 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 88, top 13% of the 64 full-backs in the Premier League. At 22 Kerkez is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 100.3 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Liverpool finished 5th of 20 · an upper-table side
2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 34 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 67.3% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 97.9/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 88, Kerkez carries the 8th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Premier League (top 13%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
