"Spurs are hoping to sign some much-needed experience during the final week of the January transfer window. According to The Athletic, Liverpool full-back Andy Robertson is a target with 'talks advancing' between clubs and the player's representatives. It follows news that Spurs' Ben Davies will be sidelined for some time with a broken ankle, leaving Frank's side light on the left-hand side of defence."
"Robertson has spent almost nine years at Anfield, winning the Champions League and Premier League in that time. Since turning 31 last March, and following the signing of Milos Kerkez from AFC Bournemouth in the summer, Robertson has fulfilled a deputy's role under Arne Slot. The Scotland international still has much to offer a Premier League side but that may now only be the case for a team lower in the table."
"As per David Ornstein, Robertson was identified as a summer 2026 transfer target with the Scot's Liverpool contract running out. However, after exploratory talks, that decision has been brought forward with Frank supposedly keen to bolster his defensive ranks with greater experience. Robertson has developed a reputation as a strong ball-progressor at Liverpool and could certainly mirror the function Pedro Porro fulfils on the opposite flank. The 31-year-old has recently acknowledged he still wants to play regularly, which is not the case currently."
Tottenham are pursuing Andy Robertson to add experienced cover at left-back after Ben Davies suffered a broken ankle, leaving Spurs light on that flank. Talks between the clubs and the player's representatives are reportedly advancing ahead of the January transfer deadline. Robertson has spent nearly nine years at Liverpool, winning the Champions League and Premier League, but has taken a deputy role since Milos Kerkez's arrival and turning 31. Liverpool contract expiry prompted earlier identification as a summer 2026 target, but exploratory discussions have accelerated that timeline. Robertson is known as a strong ball-progressor and has expressed a desire to play regular first-team football.
