Liverpool are reportedly questioning Milos Kerkez's long-term future at left-back, while Andoni Iraola remains confident he can help the defender regain his best form.
Kerkez's performances under scrutiny
Kerkez has made 10 appearances across all competitions this season, including eight in the Premier League. His final-third contribution and overall defensive displays have drawn criticism. Liverpool lost 3-2 to Fenerbahce in the Champions League.
Iraola's role in his development
Iraola worked with Kerkez at Bournemouth and played an important role in his development before Kerkez's move to Merseyside.
No immediate departure
Kerkez is not facing an immediate departure, and the coaching staff is prepared to give him more opportunities to improve. CaughtOffside reported that Kerkez is expected to receive more time to establish himself before Liverpool considers making significant changes at left-back.
Liverpool assess defensive options
Liverpool are assessing their defensive options ahead of future transfer windows, particularly at centre-back and right-back.
