Liverpool FC announced that left-back Andy Robertson will leave the club when his contract expires in June. The Scotland captain, who joined from Hull City in 2017, became a mainstay under Jurgen Klopp. His exit comes after limited minutes this season following Milos Kerkez's arrival.
Liverpool confirmed on Wednesday afternoon that Andy Robertson will depart at the end of the season. The 32-year-old Scottish defender's contract runs out in June, marking the end of his nine-year stint at Anfield. Club officials stated the full-back had been in discussions with Tottenham during the January transfer window but stayed on after persuasion from head coach Arne Slot, committing to the final seven games with a likely standing ovation farewell in prospect. The Scotland international arrived from Hull City in the summer of 2017 as a squad player but quickly earned a starting spot. Robertson proved integral to Jurgen Klopp's high-pressing system, bringing vocal leadership and competitive drive to the dressing room. Over his time at Liverpool, he collected major honors including the 2018-19 Champions League title, the 2019-20 Premier League crown that snapped a 30-year drought, the 2021-22 domestic cup double of FA Cup and League Cup, plus the FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup. His contributions helped restore the club's elite status. This season, Robertson's playing time has dwindled with Milos Kerkez's integration into the squad. Still, he leaves as a respected figure and legend among supporters.
