Szoboszlai and Kerkez Play Tennis with Liverpool Legend Steven Gerrard

The Social Media Post That Sparked the Tennis Talk

Dominik Szoboszlai and Milos Kerkez found themselves on the losing side of a tennis match against former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard. This lighthearted off-pitch contest highlights the close ties within the wider football community.

The story gained traction when Szoboszlai shared an image on his official social media channels earlier this week. The photo showed the Hungarian midfielder and his club teammate Kerkez standing on a tennis court alongside Gerrard. According to club interviews, the casual outing quickly became a talking point among supporters eager to see how current Premier League stars fared against a club legend in a completely different sport.

Kerkez Admits Tennis Is Not His Main Sport

Reflecting on the match during his interview with Liverpool’s media team, Kerkez offered a candid assessment of his tennis abilities.

“I don’t play often, so me and Szobo lost,” the defender admitted with a laugh, explaining how the lack of regular practice on the court ultimately cost them against the former England international.

Broader Ties Within the Red-and-White Family

Speaking to official club media, the Liverpool full-back opened up about the doubles showdown after the image of the encounter surfaced.

Encounters between current Liverpool players and club icons like Gerrard frequently capture the attention of the fanbase, bridging generations of talent who have worn the shirt. While Szoboszlai and Kerkez focus on their rigorous domestic and international schedules, moments away from the training ground offer a glimpse into the camaraderie shared across eras at Anfield and beyond.
