Liverpool are the favourites to win the Premier League this season but they will be bracing up for big transformations in the upcoming summer transfer window. The contracts of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold expire this summer, and there have been no fruitful discussions regarding their renewal. Meanwhile, the club are getting ready for potential replacements for the trio.
Another cause of concern is the future of the left-back Andy Robertson. The Scottish international has been the main left-back of the club in the last few seasons. In his prime, he was one of the best left-backs in the world, but this season he has not performed consistently for the Reds. Robertson’s contract expires in the summer of 2025 and hence Liverpool are thinking about his future.
Liverpool Want To Renew Andy Robertson But Not As First-Choice Left-back
Football Insider has reported that the Reds want to retain the 31-year-old for some more time but they don’t want him as the first-choice left-back for the club anymore. Kostas Tsimikas has been rotated with the Scottish international and Liverpool might be looking to buy a new left-back in the transfer window. For now, the main aim of the club is to successfully renew the contracts of van Dijk, Salah, and Alexander-Arnold.
Liverpool’s Scottish warrior is a left-back who thrives on relentless energy. His stamina is unreal—bombing up and down the flank, delivering overlapping runs that stretch defences thin. At 31, Robertson’s crossing is lethal, whipping balls into the box with venom and accuracy.
Defensively, he’s a terrier—aggressive in tackles and quick to recover, rarely caught out. Robertson’s passing keeps attacks flowing, while his leadership is on display through fiery passion. Though not the flashiest, his work rate and tenacity make him a fan favourite. A tireless engine, the 31-year-old is the heartbeat of Liverpool’s high-octane style.
Robertson has conceded 21 goals and kept 11 clean sheets in 27 matches in the Premier League 2024/2025 season. That means when he is on the pitch, his team concedes a goal every 96 minutes. The left-back does not have a goal or assist to his name this season in the Premier League.
Is the decision correct?
Liverpool fans will be gutted to hear Andy Robertson might not be their top left-back anymore. Word is his contract’s up in 2025, and though they want him to stay, his shaky form this season has the club eyeing a new starter. Robbo’s been a legend—those runs and crosses defined our prime—but at 31, he is not the same. Tsimikas has stepped up, and talk of a new signing makes sense. It will be tough for the fans to see their warrior sidelined, but refreshing the squad feels right for the long haul.
