"AS Roma have confirmed that talks are underway for Kostas Tsimikas to cut his loan spell short and return to Liverpool. The talks to bring him back began after Tottenham made a move to sign Andy Robertson. While initial reports suggested Tsimikas' recall was a contingency plan for Robertson's potential departure, reports now suggest that Liverpool have pulled the plug on selling the Scotsman to their Premier League rivals. However, despite retaining Robertson, the decision to bring the world-class defender back to Merseyside remains unchanged."
"The move has been publicly confirmed by AS Roma director Ricky Massara, who admitted that the Italian club has already sanctioned the defender's exit. In a statement reported by Fabrizio Romano on X, the situation has moved quickly. AS Roma have already agreed to let Kostas Tsimikas leave the club and return to Liverpool next week, Romano reported. Massara was quoted directly addressing the negotiations: It's true, we are in talks with Liverpool about that."
