Liverpool Refuse Spurs' Approach for Key Defender
26 Jan
Summary
- Liverpool rejected Tottenham's late approach for their left-back.
- The club lacks cover for Robertson and Kerkez at left-back.
- Arne Slot seeks to retain all players for cup competitions.
Liverpool has ended discussions with Tottenham regarding an approach for their left-back, who is out of contract in June. The club's decision was influenced by a lack of cover for both Robertson and Milos Kerkez in the left-back position.
Although Robertson has seen reduced Premier League starts this season, he remains a key figure in Champions League matches. Manager Arne Slot emphasized the importance of retaining all players, especially with Liverpool still competing in the Champions League and FA Cup. The team is also dealing with existing defensive injuries, including Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni with season-ending injuries, and Joe Gomez with a knee issue.
