Andy Robertson has confirmed that he decided to reject a move to Tottenham in the January transfer window, opting to remain at Liverpool. The Scotland captain, 31, emerged as a surprise target for Spurs late in the window, and Liverpool were willing to listen to offers after his nine years of service.
However, Robertson ultimately chose to stay, a decision he revealed after Friday's 3-1 FA Cup win over Wolves. 'There was obviously interest there – there were discussions had with both sets of clubs. But the decision was that I wanted to stay. We stayed at Liverpool and that was the decision made,' he said.
Robertson hinted that he is ready to extend his contract, despite his deal expiring this summer and interest from other clubs. He stressed that talks would remain private but that fans would be informed when a decision is reached. 'I've always said that [the talks] will stay between me and the club,' he added.
The left-back has been displaced by summer signing Milos Kerkez this season but produced an impressive performance against Wolves, scoring the opening goal. Robertson's future remains uncertain, but he emphasised his commitment to Liverpool. 'I'll be committed until I'm no longer needed. That's always been my mindset.'
