Liverpool is unlikely to sell left-back Andy Robertson to Tottenham in the January transfer window, according to sources close to the club. The 31-year-old Scotland captain has been a mainstay of Liverpool's team since joining from Hull City for £8m in 2017 and has won numerous honors with the Reds, including two Premier League titles and the Champions League.
However, Robertson is no longer the first-choice left-back under Arne Slot, with Milos Kerkez being preferred. Despite this, Robertson has started just four times in the Premier League this season, and it seems that Liverpool do not want to sell him in the current window.
The club's decision comes after Tottenham made an offer worth £5m for Robertson, who is out of contract in the summer. However, Liverpool have decided that they cannot proceed with the sale, at least for now.
It is understood that Robertson was not pushing for a move from Liverpool and is keen to play more regularly before this summer's World Cup. The Reds are currently sixth in the league, 14 points behind leaders Arsenal, but are in a strong position to reach the Champions League last 16.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has expressed his desire for Robertson to stay at the club, calling him "very important" member of the squad.
