Andy Robertson Sounds Like He's Absolutely Made His Mind Up on Leaving Liverpool in 2026

Liverpool's long-serving left-back Andy Robertson has fueled speculation about his Anfield exit after candidly admitting uncertainty over his future, with his contract set to expire in the summer of 2026.[1]



In a recent interview, the 31-year-old Scotland international revealed he lacks clarity on whether he'll remain at Liverpool beyond this season. Despite being a key player under Jürgen Klopp and contributing to the Premier League title win under Arne Slot last term, Robertson has been sidelined by new signing Milos Kerkez, who arrived for £40 million ($54m) from Bournemouth and has claimed most starting spots.[1]

"We'll see what happens," Robertson stated. "We've had chats now which will remain private... Yes [I'd like to stay], but it's a difficult question. I've got five months left and we need to see the options to stay or if there's options to go."[1]

The defender confirmed ongoing contract discussions with the club but emphasized weighing all possibilities with his family after a "stressful summer." He joined Liverpool in 2017 for £8m from Hull City, amassing over 350 appearances and major trophies including two Premier League titles and the Champions League.[1]

Robertson reflected positively on his time at Anfield: "I've given absolutely everything for the club for the last eight and a half years and the club have been very good to me." Yet, his non-committal tone suggests he's open to departure, especially amid links to moves away last summer.[1][3]

Other reports echo this ambiguity. This Is Anfield notes his future is "unresolved as contract talks continue, with options to consider," while Dave OCKOP confirms talks are underway but details are scarce.[2][3] Thai Rath coverage highlights his vice-captain role and response to transfer rumors on January 15, 2026.[4]

Robertson's hints point to a potential 2026 exit, leaving fans bracing for change at left-back.
