FOOTBALL – TOTTENHAM Hotspur have signed full back Andy Robertson on a free transfer, the Premier League club said yesterday after the Scotland international left Liverpool at the end of his contract.
The 32-year-old left Liverpool after a nine-year stint where he won the Premier League twice, the FA Cup and two League Cups and reached the Champions League final three times, winning the trophy in 2019. Robertson had announced he would leave Liverpool in April and Spurs were looking to add an experienced player to the squad after avoiding relegation on the final day of the season.
“Andy is someone I’ve admired for a number of years and he will bring outstanding technical qualities, experience, leadership and mentality to our team,” Spurs coach Roberto De Zerbi said in a statement.
Renowned for his energy and his ability to make an impact in the final third, Robertson redefined the role of the attacking full back under Juergen Klopp. He left Liverpool after scoring 14 goals and providing 69 assists.
