The Scotland international called time on a nine-year stint at Anfield, having fallen behind Milos Kerkez in the pecking order during his final season on Merseyside.Spurs had been interested in signing the left-back in January, only for both Liverpool and Robertson to decide it would be best for him to see out the campaign at Anfield.But with Tottenham retaining their interest, the 32-year-old needed little convincing to join the North London outfit on a Bosman transfer once his Anfield contract expired.“I’m excited to be here… I was very fortunate, I’ve not had to do it (move clubs) for so long. But it’s also exciting.“It’s perfect for this time in my career and that’s why when the opportunity came up to join, I was excited to go for it and now that I’m here, I’m excited to keep progressing in my career and keep doing good things.

Hopefully I can do that in a Tottenham shirt.“I don’t think that it’s a secret that it nearly happened in January and it didn’t for one reason or another. I’ve played here plenty of times and I know that the supporters get right behind their team.“It’s a really big club and a club that’s going places.

We know of each other – he knows me as a player, I know him as a manager and it was just more that we were excited to work with each other.“He’s well-known in world football for being a fantastic manager and the fact that he’s here, hopefully I can do really good things under him. I think this is a club that’s going places and it's the perfect time for me to be a part of it.”Choose Liverpool Echo as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.Andy RobertsonTottenham Hotspur FCLiverpool FCLiverpool FC transfer news
