"The Londoners made their move late last week as under-pressure boss Thomas Frank sought to add some much-needed experience to his squad. Liverpool listened to the approach in recognition of Robertson's contribution to the club in the last eight-and-a-half years and the fact he is out of contract in the summer. However, the Press Association understands the club have decided against continuing negotiations over the Scotland captain, who turns 32 in March, after considering their options."
"Robertson has started only four Premier League matches this season, having lost his place to Milos Kerkez, but has been in the starting line-up for four of their seven Champions League fixtures -- including high-profile matches against both Madrid clubs Real and Atletico and Inter Milan. Liverpool's vice-captain came off the bench for the start of the second half of Saturday's defeat at Bournemouth, with head coach Arne Slot later revealing Kerkez had been withdrawn as he was considered in the "red zone" -- when players are at most risk of injury."
Liverpool have pulled out of talks with Tottenham over an approach for veteran full-back Andy Robertson and will not continue negotiations. Tottenham made a late-week approach as boss Thomas Frank sought added experience. Liverpool considered Robertson's eight-and-a-half years of contribution and his impending contract expiry before deciding. Sources confirm the club does not want to part ways and Robertson did not request a move. Robertson has started four Premier League games after losing his spot to Milos Kerkez but started four of seven Champions League fixtures. Squad injuries and availability issues have influenced selection decisions, and teammates and staff want to retain him.
