Andy Robertson has packed up nine years at Liverpool and is heading to Tottenham, with the latest transfer news confirming the move is done. The Scotland captain will now work under Roberto De Zerbi as Spurs look to rebuild next season.
Spurs confirm Andy Robertson deal after winter move collapsed
As reported by the Goal, Spurs first went after Robertson in January under former manager Thomas Frank. That move fell through because Liverpool could not bring Kostas Tsimikas back from his loan at Roma. Robertson’s deal at Anfield was not extended this summer, and the news from Liverpool confirmed he was free to leave at no cost.
As reported by BBC, Robertson now heads to north London on a free transfer, and for a club that was fighting relegation just weeks ago, landing a player of his calibre costs nothing but could change everything. He walks away from Anfield with 378 appearances, the Champions League, the FA Cup, two League Cups, and two Premier League titles to his name, as per transfermarkt.
His second domestic title came just last season in 2024-25, making him one of the most decorated full-backs in football over the past decade. Robertson heads to north London on a free, and for a club that was fighting relegation just weeks ago, his experience at no cost is a sensible bit of business.
Andy Robertson’s all time numbers for Liverpool, as per FotMob:
Competition Appearances Goals Assists
Premier League 332 12 60
UCL 66 2 9
Europa League 4 0 0
FA Cup 13 1 3
Carabao Cup 13 0 0
De Zerbi backs Robertson to make an instant impact
As reported by ESPN, De Zerbi, who took charge of Spurs after leaving Marseille, praised his new signing strongly, saying Robertson brings “outstanding technical qualities, experience, leadership and mentality”and that he is a proven winner at the top level. The Spurs manager also noted that Robertson can make a big impact both on and off the pitch, which matters for a side that only stayed up in the Premier League on the final day of last season. A player of his level choosing to join a club in transition tells you a lot about where De Zerbi wants to take Spurs.
At Liverpool, Andy Robertson worked hard and led loudly from the left side. He gave his best every week and always pushed the players near him to do more. Johan Lange backed the deal for the same reasons, noting Robertson’s strong work rate and his history of winning big trophies. For a Spurs side that had a very poor season last year, getting this kind of leader on a free transfer is a big deal.
Scotland duty comes first before Robertson settles at Spurs
Before joining Spurs, Robertson has a major international tournament to focus on first. He will captain Scotland at this summer’s World Cup, which is their first appearance in over two decades. Scottish football has waited a long time for this moment, and Robertson is the man leading them into it. He will join De Zerbi’s squad in north London once Scotland’s World Cup journey comes to an end.
Robertson and Mohamed Salah both leaving in the same summer marks a major turning point in Liverpool’s recent history, and the latest news confirms the club is now focused on a full rebuild. For Tottenham, getting a player like Robertson for free is the kind of move that can change a squad very fast. De Zerbi now has a man in his group who has won league titles and the Champions League, and that will count for a lot when things get hard next season.
