Tsimikas has made 115 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, but was never able to replace Robertson as the first choice.



At 29, he now looks ready to move on in search of more consistent playing time.

The timing of this potential exit raises questions.

Liverpool are still looking to strengthen their defense, with Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi linked with a move.

Allowing Tsimikas to leave could reduce depth on the left side, even if Kerkez continues to impress.

Tsimikas is under contract until 2027, so Liverpool are not under pressure to sell.

For now, the Greek international appears to be the odd man out, but fans know how quickly fortunes can change in football.

As Reds supporters might say, Liverpool need balance at the back — and not just on the score sheet.

Whether Tsimikas leaves permanently or temporarily, this will be one to watch as the transfer window edges toward its close.
