Andy Robertson Begins Talks with Atletico Madrid<\/h2>\n<\/header>\n\nTalks Begin Over Scottish Star<\/b><\/h3>\n
Fabrizio Romano<\/a> has confirmed that the Scottish international is the Spanish side’s top target. This also includes him being a higher priority than former academy player Theo Hernandez. However, he also acknowledged that Liverpool still rate him highly, despite the ongoing talks with Milos Kerkez, and it will not be an “easy deal”.<\/p>\nIn addition to this, Romano’s latest update reaffirms that Robertson is the Los Colchoneros’ “top target”. Furthermore, he added<\/a> that the Scotsman is keen on the move to Madrid as initial talks have already begun.<\/p>\nRead More:<\/strong>\u00a0Manchester City Confirm The Arrival Of \u2018Maverick\u2019 Talent<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\nRobertson’s exit after over 300 appearances for the club would mark their third departure this summer. Full-back partner for the last eight years, Trent Alexander-Arnold, has already left the club for ‘Los Blancos’, whilst backup keeper Caoimhin Kelleher departed for Brentford in a bid for first-team football.<\/p>\n
\nHow This Move Could Affect Both Liverpool and Robertson.<\/h3>\n
Throughout Arne Slot’s first season on Merseyside, speculation around the future of the “fan favourite”<\/a> has been prevalent. This is shown through links to the likes of Ajax “wonderkid”<\/a>\u00a0Jorrel Hato and Fulham’s Antonee Robinson. Most recently, a deal for Kerkez<\/a> has looked the most likely as Romano reported that “he is going to join Liverpool”.<\/p>\nFurthermore, the Hungarian international is also more likely to suit Slot’s system. After the arrival of Jeremie Frimpong and a tactical tweak<\/a> at the end of last season, attacking full-backs are clearly what the Dutch manager wants. This is because it would allow Ryan Gravenberch to aid build-up alongside the centre-backs and bring the wingers like Mohamed Salah inside.<\/p>\nAs a result, it comes as no surprise that Robertson wants out. In a similar vein to Kieran Trippier, joining Diego Simeone’s side could rejuvenate his form after struggles this season. With the club spending big over the last few seasons, the left-back has a good chance of being competitive domestically and in Europe.<\/p>\n
