The transfer market doesn’t take a break, and things keep moving at Liverpool. One of the strongest rumors making headlines is the possible departure of Andy Robertson, who could bid farewell to Arne Slot’s side and try his luck in Spanish football with Atlético de Madrid.

Why would Robertson leave?

The Scottish full-back is no longer a youngster, and after eight seasons at Liverpool, he’s keen to avoid seeing his playing time reduced with the Reds. Even though he featured in 33 Premier League matches last season, he prefers to seek a fresh challenge rather than end up on the bench.

On top of that, the imminent arrival of Milos Kerkez, the 21-year-old Hungarian from Bournemouth, would see Robertson face direct competition for the left-back spot — a clear message from the board that it’s time to bring new blood to the position.

Andy’s plan: stay at the top

Robertson feels his cycle in the Premier League is coming to an end, but he has no intention of lowering his standards. He wants a club that offers European football and can fight for trophies — two boxes that Atlético de Madrid ticks perfectly.

At the Metropolitano, Simeone knows exactly what a player like Robertson could contribute, and the club is already considering a possible deal. His price tag is around $20 million, a figure well within reach for Los Colchoneros.

The final step: waiting for the Club World Cup

Atlético de Madrid, currently focused on the Club World Cup, can’t finalize any moves just yet. But once the tournament wraps up, the board, led by Enrique Cerezo, is expected to push for a reinforcement on the left flank. All signs point to Andy Robertson as their top target — and the player himself is eager to don the Colchoneros shirt.
