Andy Robertson’s future at Liverpool has reached a critical point as he enters his final year of contract. 2026 could mark a pivotal turning point in his career; having played such an instrumental part during one of its most prosperous periods at Anfield.
Since joining Liverpool in 2017, Robertson has played an instrumental role in its revival, contributing to victories across Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup competitions.
A Legendary Chapter for Liverpool
Under the guidance of Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool underwent a remarkable transformation, with Robertson playing a key role in this progression. Known for his relentless runs down the left side, precise crossing ability, and leadership on and off the pitch, he established himself as one of Europe’s top full-backs during his prime.
Despite his strengths, natural physical decline has affected his recent form and performances. This season, his time on the pitch has been limited, reflecting a shift in his role within the team.
The current Liverpool manager values Robertson’s experience but is increasingly focusing on building for the future with younger talents, such as Milos Kerkez, coming through the ranks.
Potential Destinations for Robertson
While Liverpool are not actively pushing Robertson to leave, the club remains open to offers that would allow him to continue playing regular first-team football elsewhere. One emotionally meaningful option could be a return to Celtic, a club he has often spoken about fondly.
Outside of Scotland, Atlético Madrid have expressed interest in his defensive qualities and competitive spirit, which align well with their manager’s style of play.
Wolverhampton Wanderers, Crystal Palace and Aston Villa have also expressed an interest in Robertson within English Premier League clubs.
According to reports, moving Robertson could prove mutually beneficial for him and Liverpool FC alike; giving Robertson the chance to continue their impressive run while supporting Liverpool’s long-term plans.
