In a recent segment on YouTube, prominent journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Liverpool’s full-back Andy Robertson is poised to transfer to Tottenham Hotspur. Romano mentioned,
“(Robertson) is set to join Tottenham if they remain in the Premier League. According to my sources, there is already a complete agreement between Robertson and Tottenham.”

Robertson’s Inconsistent Season with Liverpool
This season has been up-and-down for Robertson at the Premier League club, often finding himself in a secondary role to Milos Kerkez in Arne Slot’s hierarchy. The 32-year-old has showcased his abilities at various points on the left side, making 33 appearances for Liverpool this season, scoring two goals and providing two assists across competitions.
With his contract expiring at the end of the season, this could pave the way for Spurs to acquire him without a transfer fee later this summer.

Should Tottenham Hotspur Manager Roberto De Zerbi Pursue Robertson?
Robertson is an agile dribbler, adept at making dynamic runs down the left flank. He is also a competent crosser of the ball and a dedicated defender for his team. With his vast experience in top-tier football, he understands the dynamics of winning trophies.
The Scottish international primarily plays as a left-back but can also be deployed as a left-sided winger if needed. However, there are some doubts about whether he can maintain a high performance level at Spurs. Nevertheless, it would be a shrewd decision for the club to pursue him, given his leadership qualities, which could greatly benefit Roberto De Zerbi’s squad next season.
Robertson has the potential to enhance Tottenham’s defensive lineup, and he remains capable of competing for a starting role at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the years to come.

At 32, Robertson likely still has several good years left in him at a competitive level. With his contract nearing expiration, De Zerbi should prioritize securing him on a free transfer when the season concludes.
