What Andrew Robertson recently said about his future with Liverpool

Robertson has been a fantastic player for Liverpool over the years, forming a key part of some of Jurgen Klopp’s most successful teams.

However, he is not getting any younger and finds himself behind Milos Kerkez in the pecking order this season.

Discussing the matter recently, Robertson admitted it was a role he was not accustomed to, hinting that he could be nearing the end of his time with Liverpool.

See below for what Robertson told BBC Sport about his future…

The 31-year-old now looks set to be handed an exciting opportunity to continue his Premier League career with Tottenham, who will see this as a quality signing to add quality and experience to their squad.

It has not been Tottenham’s best season, but Robertson could help turn things around for manager Thomas Frank, who is under pressure.

In what is a largely young team, it is easy to imagine an experienced winner and leader like Robertson becoming an important figure on and off the pitch.

It remains to be seen how long this deal will last, but we may yet see Robertson play his final game for Liverpool, unless there is time for a final farewell appearance in this weekend’s match against Bournemouth.
