Pundits Split on Andy Robertson’s Next Move as Celtic Return Questioned

Fresh commentary questions Celtic’s cost and tactical fit.

Overview

  • Robertson’s future drew fresh debate Friday, with Pat Nevin casting doubt on a Celtic deal and Dean Saunders urging him to stay at the Premier League’s top end.
  • The 32-year-old is out of contract at Liverpool this summer and has fallen behind Milos Kerkez at left-back after making few full league appearances.
  • Nevin argued Celtic’s recruitment seeks resale value and said a fee and wages could be a hurdle, adding that pairing Robertson with Kieran Tierney likely needs a back-three setup.
  • Other options have surfaced this season, with a January enquiry from Tottenham halted by Liverpool and earlier links to Atlético Madrid reported last summer.
  • Robertson said international duty has kept him going during a tough club campaign and he is set to match Jim Leighton’s 91 caps in Saturday’s Scotland friendly at Hampden Park.
