  • Tottenham Hotspur is nearing a deal to sign Andy Robertson from Liverpool FC.
  • The 32-year-old left-back played his final game for Liverpool on Sunday and will leave when his contract expires.
  • Robertson departs Liverpool after 378 appearances, having won two Premier League titles and the Champions League.

Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly close to finalizing the signing of Andy Robertson, a 32-year-old left-back departing Liverpool FC.

Robertson played his last match for Liverpool against Brentford FC on Sunday, marking the end of his tenure as his contract expires this summer. BBC Sport reported on Wednesday that while details are still being finalized, both Tottenham and Liverpool have reached an agreement in principle.

This move follows a previous attempt by Spurs to sign Robertson during the January transfer window under former manager Thomas Frank. A deal was close then, but Liverpool withdrew after being unable to recall Kostas Tsimikas from his loan spell.

Robertson leaves Liverpool as a highly decorated player, having made 378 appearances and contributing to two Premier League titles and a UEFA Champions League victory. He also holds 92 caps for the Scotland national team and is expected to captain his country at the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
