JAKARTA - Tottenham Hotspur has begun talks with Liverpool regarding a potential deal for defender Andrew Robertson.
The left-back, who joined Liverpool from Hull City in 2017, has a contract that will expire at the end of the season.
Earlier this month, Robertson admitted that he was not sure where his future lay in the long term. Launching ESPN, Tottenham have now made an approach to sign the 31-year-old despite no deal having been reached.
Robertson has been pushed down the pecking order at Liverpool this season following the £40m signing of Milos Kerkez in the summer.
Spurs' interest in Robertson comes amid the club's efforts to add experience and leadership to Thomas Frank's team, which is on a downward trend and is in 14th place in the English League table.
"I am a player who wants to play. I still have five months left and we need to see what options there are to stay or whether there are options to leave."
"I need to sit down with my family and decide. After a stressful summer, I'm just trying to enjoy being part of the team and being a Liverpool player."
"I want to qualify for the 2026 World Cup and thankfully, we managed to do it. I need to see what I and my family want in the future," Robertson said earlier this month.
Frank's difficult start at Spurs has been hampered by a long injury list, which includes key starters such as Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison. Meanwhile, Ben Davies' ankle injury adds to Spurs' problems.
Destiny Udogie has been the team's first-choice left-back since his arrival in 2023, but repeated muscle injuries have often left him out of action and Djed Spence has often replaced the Italian's position.
If Robertson's transfer to Spurs materializes, he will become the second left-back to join during the January 2026 transfer window, after the arrival of Souza from Santos for a transfer fee of 15 million euros on Thursday, January 22, 2026, local time.
Robertson has made 363 appearances for Liverpool, winning a number of prestigious titles including two Premier League and Champions League titles in 2019.
