Liverpool and Chelsea reportedly intend to acquire Antonee Robinson of Fulham during the upcoming summer transfer window. Robinson made an impactful mark this season for Fulham with 10 assists coming from defensive positions – earning attention both from Liverpool and Chelsea alike.
However, Liverpool seems the most interested, offering around EUR35m as their initial offer to secure Robinson. Fulham may hold out for higher compensation fees of EUR50m+ due to Robinson’s key position within their squad.
With Andrew Robertson advancing in age and experiencing a slight dip in form this term, Liverpool is keen on refreshing their left-back options. Robinson, with his impressive performance at Fulham, emerges as a prime candidate for this role.
Liverpool Eyes Summer Reinforcement
Robinson could bring significant strength to Liverpool’s defense as they search for an ideal replacement for Robertson. They have also expressed interest in Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez as part of an ongoing talent search in this position, which suggests an interest from other clubs despite fierce competition for left-back talent.
Robinson could find joining Liverpool an appealing next step in his career despite longtime allegiances with Everton (Liverpool’s rival). Spending 11 years within Everton’s academy but never making their first team squad would mark an important step along his journey and an eventual move would serve as a significant turning point on Robinson’s professional path.
