Liverpool ace to consider his future as potential summer exit edges closer

 

 

Andy Robertson’s long-term future at Liverpool is becoming a growing talking point, with the Scotland international now expected to weigh up his options once his contract runs out this summer.

Football Insider reports that the veteran left-back is open to a new challenge after seeing his influence at Anfield gradually reduce this season. At 31, Robertson remains one of the most important figures of Liverpool’s modern era, but recent changes have altered his status within the squad.

The signing of Milos Kerkez has reshaped the left-back hierarchy, and under head coach Arne Slot, Robertson is no longer viewed as the automatic first choice. That shift has led to fewer minutes on the pitch and prompted serious reflection as he enters the final months of his deal.

His situation attracted attention during the January transfer window. Tottenham Hotspur showed strong interest, identifying Robertson as an experienced option to strengthen their defence. Spurs were hopeful of making progress, but Liverpool stood firm and refused to allow a mid-season exit.

Despite that stance, Tottenham are believed to have returned with further enquiries on Deadline Day to see if Liverpool’s position had changed. It had not. With the Reds still competing on multiple fronts, the club made it clear Robertson would not be leaving midway through the campaign.

While a January departure was never likely, the longer-term outlook is less certain. Kerkez’s growing role and Slot’s tactical demands have seen Robertson’s involvement drop noticeably — a significant change for a player once central to Liverpool’s identity.

Those close to the situation insist Robertson remains professional and highly respected in the dressing room, but he is also realistic about where he stands at this stage of his career.

Since joining from Hull City, Robertson has been a key figure in one of the most successful periods in Liverpool’s history, and his impact on the club’s recent success is undeniable.
