Tottenham-Robertson Talks
Tottenham is in advanced talks to sign Andy Robertson on a free transfer this summer. Robertson confirmed he is leaving Anfield after nine years at the club. The deal is contingent on Spurs staying in the Premier League.
Rival suitors Celtic and Hull City have also expressed interest. Liverpool has conditioned any transfer on finding a replacement.
Injury and Squad Needs
Tottenham's urgency to sign Robertson has been fueled by a series of injuries. Club captain Cristian Romero is set to miss the rest of the season. Robertson has started only four times in the current Premier League season.
He wants to play regularly before the 2026 World Cup. Tottenham sees him as a player who can immediately strengthen the dressing room.
Transfer Fee and Contract
Talks have accelerated with Tottenham and Liverpool discussing a package of around £5 million. Robertson joined Liverpool in 2017 for £8 million from Hull City. He has played 363 games and won two Premier League titles and the Champions League.
Liverpool no longer renews contracts out of gratitude. Robertson feels like a figure caught between eras.
