Andy Robertson is heading for the exit at Liverpool at the end of this season, with multiple clubs in contention for the left-back whose contract expires in June, according to transfer journalist Ekrem Konur.
Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, Tottenham and Celtic are all described as interested, making the Scot one of the more in-demand free agents of the summer despite turning 32 in March.
Robertson’s departure would remove one of the last connections to the Jurgen Klopp era — the generation that delivered Liverpool’s first Premier League title, a Champions League, and years of domestic dominance. His exit follows Mohamed Salah’s confirmed departure and the wider sense that this squad is undergoing a significant transition.
Tactically, Liverpool’s left-back position will need addressing regardless. Robertson’s replacement must be able to fit Arne Slot’s system — a style that demands more inverted carrying from full-backs than the overlapping role Robertson was primarily recruited for under Klopp.
The Atletico link is interesting given the Robertson-Simeone dynamic. His physical intensity and set-piece delivery would translate well to La Liga, and Spanish football has increasingly become a destination for experienced Premier League players who want a final high-level chapter.
For Celtic — the club Robertson left to join Liverpool in 2017 — the sentimental return narrative is obvious and will dominate coverage in Scotland. Whether Celtic can compete financially with European clubs is less clear.
Tottenham’s interest carries its own narrative: De Zerbi’s arrival, should it be confirmed, changes the profile of player needed at left-back, and Robertson at 32 on a free transfer fills an immediate need without long-term commitment.
