Andy Robertson reaches verbal agreement with Tottenham after Juventus bid fails

Andy Robertson has reportedly reached a verbal agreement to join Tottenham Hotspur, with the Scotland captain set to leave Liverpool at the end of his contract. The 32-year-old left-back is said to have rebuffed a late approach from Juventus to stay in the Premier League.

Robertson's chances at Anfield diminished under Arne Slot, with summer signing Milos Kerkez establishing himself as first choice. The defender bid an emotional farewell to Liverpool fans during the 1-1 draw with Brentford, receiving a guard of honour in his final appearance.

Tottenham narrowly avoided relegation with a final-day win over Everton, and manager Roberto De Zerbi is wasting no time in strengthening his squad. Reports suggest an early double swoop for Robertson and Bournemouth's Marcos Senesi is in the works.

Robertson's move to Spurs is expected to be finalised from July 1, with the player having hinted at his next destination in a social media farewell, telling fans: 'It's not goodbye, it's a see you soon.'

The former Dundee United and Hull City defender won two Premier League titles, two Carabao Cups, and the Champions League, FA Cup, Super Cup, and Club World Cup during his time at Liverpool. He will now lead Scotland at a World Cup for the first time since 1998.
