There are a few players in the Premier League who are surely going to get big moves in the summer.
Matheus Cunha has been incredible for Wolves recently, and Cunha has been linked to Arsenal.
Meanwhile, Milos Kerkez has caught Liverpool’s eye with his performances for Bournemouth this season.
Liam Delap is on Chelsea’s radar too after a solid season with Ipswich.
Another player who has been brilliant this season is Antonee Robinson, and speaking on ESPN, Shaka Hislop has been discussing where the Fulham full-back will end up.
Robinson has been linked with Liverpool in a move worth £40m, and according to Hislop, that is a move that makes a lot of sense.
Antonee Robinson to Liverpool makes sense
Hislop spoke about Robinson’s next career move and why a move to Liverpool would make sense.
Hislop reviewed Robinson’s options, discussing the idea of a move to Arsenal or Manchester City.
However, ultimately, the pundit decided that a move to Liverpool makes the most sense.
“Who can be as good as Robertson was defensively? Who can be as good in terms of supporting the attack, providing assists?” Hislop said.
“Antonee Robinson has certainly proven himself, proven that he can do that and cover the ground that would be needed in a Liverpool system.
“That’s the easy fit. For me, again, I don’t see Manchester City as a viable landing spot. I also don’t see Arsenal in all honesty.
“Given Myles Lewis-Skelly and his emergence. I know he’s only young, but 18 years old. But Calafiori also, who was signed last summer.
“So they have a player that they spent a lot of money to bring in last summer and a young talent coming through that Arteta would like to continue to develop. So for me, I think they’re already taken care of. They also have Zinchenko, but he is more for the Carabao Cup with the greatest respect.
“So they have numbers in that position. So I don’t feel that that’s their need. Arsenal have far greater needs than a left back, which we talk about regularly.
“So Liverpool for me just ticks all the boxes for it.”
What Antonee Robinson said about Myles Lewis-Skelly
Hislop reckons that Robinson is more likely to end up at Liverpool than Arsenal due to the emergence of Myles Lewis-Skelly.
Lewis-Skelly has been brilliant this season, and one player who knows that well is Robinson himself.
Indeed, Robinson recently praised Lewis-Skelly for his emergence at Arsenal this season.
“It’s incredible to see. I mean, especially when they’ve just spent money on, you know, Calafiori coming in, like the fact that the manager’s done that, he’s fit, but he trusts this young lad to step in and play in general. Like you don’t see, it doesn’t happen often,’ Robinson said.
“I think just overall in football, like it’s really hard for a manager to put a trust in like a 17, 18 year old. And then his performances, he’s been top. He’s built, he’s a proper unit.
“He hangs about with men completely comfortably and technically he looks really good.
“He’s got that little dirty bit. He’s got the dirty bit. And that’s the bit, I promise you, that can be all the difference sometimes, isn’t it?
“Is wanting the physical. You see how many times he’s kind of, he sees somebody coming and he’ll just step along them or alongside it and just go, no, and give them the little nudge. And I think that’ll do for me.”
Lewis-Skelly’s emergence certainly means that Arsenal don’t need a new left-back in the summer, and that may give a club like Liverpool a clearer run at Robinson.
Whether or not the Reds make a move for Robinson remains to be seen, but Liverpool do need a new left-back and the USA international is certainly one of the best around.
