Antonee Robinson could ‘thrive’ under Ruben Amorim at Man Utd, says John Arne Riise (Picture: Getty) John Arne Riise has advised Manchester United to sign Antonee Robinson, believing the Fulham star could ‘thrive’ at Old Trafford. Former Liverpool and Fulham left-back Riise was ‘quite sure’ that the Reds were going to make a bid for Robinson in the summer transfer window.



Riise is a huge fan of Fulham left-back Robinson, and ahead of the January transfer window, the Norwegian feels the United States international would now be very much open to joining the Red Devils. ‘I was quite sure that Liverpool was going to go for Antonee Robinson in the summer because he’s a full-back that I think will suit Liverpool perfectly,’ Riise told Casinostugan.

It’s just hard.’ Liverpool were previously reported to be interested in Antonee Robinson (Picture: Getty) Robinson has been at Fulham since 2020, with the west London club paying just £2m to sign him from Wigan Athletic. Earlier this year, Robinson dismissed speculation linking him with a move to Liverpool, but did admit his friends and family all hail from the city. ‘Transfer rumours and stuff like that, I try not to look at [them],’ Robinson told ESPN. ‘Especially like with the Liverpool one – all my friends and family are from Liverpool, so it’s more of them messaging me than me seeing newspaper stuff. ‘And I have to say, “Look, it’s just, just a story in the paper and anyone who’s doing well is going to get linked to a team”.’ This season, Robinson has only played four Premier League matches due to a knee problem.
