Tottenham have already expressed interest in Liverpool in the possible transfer of left-back Andy Robertson, the future of the defender being unclear with a lot of uncertainty as to whether he would remain in Anfield. The Scotland international is in the last few months of his contract and he is bound to become a free agent after the season.

Robertson, 31, has lost his place considerably during the ongoing Premier League campaign and has only made four league starts. His decreased participation has cast doubts over his future stance in Liverpool, especially after Milos Kerkez became the first-choice left-back in the club. The 22-year-old Hungary international has since established his place in the first team after joining Liverpool at PS40 million last summer after being acquired by Bournemouth.

In a speech last week Robertson confessed that he was still uncertain whether he would retain his stay at Liverpool after this season. The defender, who has only five months remaining on his contract, demonstrated that it is essential to weigh his options with his family. In spite of the uncertainty, he said that he still felt proud of the fact he was representing Liverpool, and that he was focused on having fun with his time in the club.

The important aspect that was affecting the thoughts of Robertson is the world cup that will be held in 2026. With a guaranteed spot in the qualification of Scotland already secured, the long-serving defender is eager to continue being a regular player in the club level to increase his probability of making it to the final national team.

BBC Sport states that Tottenham have approached Liverpool with an agreement in view to see whether a deal can be made however talks are still on their initial stages with no agreement being reached so far. Spurs are said to be keeping a close eye on the situation as they evaluate the defensive reinforcements before the next season.

In 2017, Robertson became part of Liverpool having bought him at PS8 million and has since made 363 appearances at the club. His latest appearance was as a sub in a 1-1 draw at Burnley on January 17. Provided a transfer occurs, it would be a culmination of a very productive era at Anfield.
