Andy Robertson has now made a big claim about being offered a contract extension at Liverpool, having announced his exit this summer. Now, in quotes shared by This Is Anfield, Robertson has revealed that Liverpool never offered him a new deal, making his decision about leaving easier: “It means I don’t need to lie to everyone, so it’s a weight off my shoulders.

It was a conversation of, ‘Okay, this is what I want to do, I want to play and I believe I’ve still got the ability to play.’ “I think I have showed that this season.” Did Andy Robertson merit a new Liverpool deal? At 32, he isn’t the marauding world-class left-back he was in his prime, but he is still a class act, with Arne Slot hailing him after his exit announcement, saying: “First of all, he had many great seasons here as a player, but I think people got to know him as a great person as well.

I think every teammate of his will tell you how funny he is and how great of a person he is.” There is an argument to say that Robertson could have continued as a good squad player for another two seasons, but it looks as though Liverpool felt differently. The Scotland captain is going to be an extremely hard player to replace, both because of his ability and his leadership, and it’s now up to Milos Kerkez to find new gears as Liverpool’s first-choice left-back.
