Liverpool Eye Premier League Star as Andrew Robertson’s Potential Successor”
Liverpool’s board is reportedly considering potential replacements for Andrew Robertson, whose recent performances under manager Arne Slot have not matched his previous impact at the club.
Once a key figure in Liverpool’s success, the Scottish defender has seen his playing time diminish, with Kostas Tsimikas now favored over him.
Tsimikas, who has flourished under Slot, was named Man of the Match in the impressive 2-1 victory over Brighton and has started seven league games this season.
Liverpool’s focus is now shifting toward Fulham’s left-back, Antonee Robinson. The 27-year-old American, who joined Fulham from Wigan in 2020, has been in excellent form in the Premier League.
It is rumored that Liverpool may offer Tsimikas plus cash to sign Robinson, whose current value stands at £40 million, potentially reducing the overall cost of the deal.
Robinson has been a standout performer under Fulham manager Marco Silva, starting every Premier League match and helping the team secure seventh place before the November international break. Known for his defensive reliability and offensive contributions, Robinson has already registered three assists in 11 league appearances this season.
Meanwhile, Robertson has faced scrutiny from the media, especially since the managerial change from Jurgen Klopp to Arne Slot.
Despite Robertson’s struggles, Liverpool remains dominant, sitting at the top of both the Premier League and Champions League, with the best defensive record in Europe’s top five leagues, having conceded just six goals in 11 matches.
Arne Slot is reportedly keen to strengthen the left-back position with a proven Premier League player, and Robinson’s potential arrival would not only address this need but also offer long-term stability given his consistent performances at Fulham.
A move for Robinson could be a significant step for Liverpool, especially after failing to reinforce their defense in the summer transfer window. Below is a tweet from @TheAnfieldBuzz sharing the latest news on Robinson’s potential transfer to Liverpool:
