Andy Robertson (32), a legend of Liverpool in England, appears to have already found a new team. His destination is Tottenham, also in the English Premier League (EPL).

European transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano reported on the 28th (Korean time) that "Robertson has reached a verbal agreement for a move to Tottenham," adding that "Juventus (Italy) attempted a hijacking, but the deal will remain intact, and he is set to complete the signing shortly."

Romano even included his signature phrase, "Here We Go," which signifies a completed transfer. Unless major complications arise, Robertson's move to Tottenham appears to be in its final stages.

According to Romano, Tottenham had also pursued Robertson's acquisition during the January winter transfer window. Although the transfer did not materialize at the time, Tottenham's new manager, Roberto De Zerbi, is also reportedly keen on having Robertson on the team. Consequently, Tottenham is now on the verge of securing Robertson, who has become a free agent (FA).

Left-back Robertson's contract with Liverpool expired this summer. After leaving Hull City (England) in 2017 to join Liverpool, he spent nine years as a key player for the club. Wearing the Liverpool jersey, Robertson made a total of 378 appearances, during which he lifted numerous trophies, including two English Premier League (EPL) titles, two UEFA Champions League (UCL) titles, and a Club World Cup.

Robertson is also a player with an incredible growth story. During his time at Hull City, he was not a particularly prominent player. The transfer fee Liverpool paid to sign him was only 8 million pounds, approximately 16 billion won.

However, Robertson experienced explosive growth after joining Liverpool. He established himself as the team's key left-back and rose to become a defender representing the EPL, not just Liverpool. At his peak, he was linked with a move to Barcelona (Spain) with a valuation in the hundreds of billions of won. Yet, he remained loyal and stayed with Liverpool.

Earlier, on the 25th, Robertson delivered a passionate farewell message to Liverpool fans during the final 38th round of the EPL match against Brentford.

Having quickly set his sights on his next destination, Robertson is now focusing on the 2026 FIFA North, Central America, and Caribbean World Cup. His home country, Scotland, has secured qualification for the World Cup finals for the first time in 28 years since 1998. Robertson, who has made 92 international appearances, also serves as the captain of the Scotland national team. His role is crucial for Scotland as it returns to the World Cup stage after a long absence.

Scotland has been drawn into Group C for the North, Central America, and Caribbean World Cup, alongside Brazil, Morocco, and Haiti. They will play their first group stage match against Haiti on the 14th of next month.
