Liverpool Set to Keep Robertson Through Season as Contract Talks Loom

The vice-captain enters the pre-contract window in January with European suitors watching.

Overview

  • Liverpool will not sanction a January sale, with Pete O’Rourke saying there is "no chance" Robertson leaves mid-season.
  • The 31-year-old’s contract runs to June 2026, and the club plans talks after limited progress on an extension.
  • If no agreement is reached, he can sign a pre-contract with foreign clubs in January, and Atlético Madrid are among the teams tracking him.
  • Following Milos Kerkez’s summer arrival, Robertson’s starts have decreased, yet Arne Slot values his leadership and may lean on him during defensive injuries.
  • Liverpool are also prioritising a new deal for Ibrahima Konaté amid Real Madrid interest, highlighting a broader defensive contract push.
