Robertson has had a very successful stint on Merseyside since joining from Hull City in 2017, and has a year left on his deal.
He has won everything, adding a second league title last season as Arne Slot’s side comfortably claimed the Premier League. Robertson was still a big part of that, starting 33 of 38 games.
And though some fans might be ready to move on, at 31 the defender is willing to fight for his place.
“I’m not getting any younger – I can’t change my age – but I still believe I’ve got a lot to give,” Robertson told BBC Sport Scotland while on international duty last week.
“I still believe I have a hell of a lot to give for however many years I can keep going.
“My body feels good at the minute. I can’t tell you how I’ll feel at 33 or 34, but I can tell you, at 31, I feel excellent.”
With his family settled in the city and his place as a club legend likely assured, moving away would be a big change.
Plus Robertson will likely have taken note of the acrimony around Trent Alexander-Arnold’s recent exit for Real Madrid.
Those situations are not directly comparable given Alexander-Arnold is a local boy and academy product, who at 26 potentially has his peak years in front of him.
Nonetheless, whether Robertson is first choice or not at Liverpool next season, the club will have a big pull – especially given they would arguably want him to stay and compete with Kerkez for a starting berth across a long season on several fronts.
