Tottenham have signed Scotland captain Andy Robertson on a free transfer after his contract with Liverpool expired. The 32‑year‑old left‑back will join Spurs on 1 July, following a deal that fell through when Liverpool could not recall Kostas Tsimikas from Roma.

Spurs, freshly promoted under Roberto de Zerbi, clinched Premier League survival the previous season by beating Everton. De Zerbi praised Robertson as a proven winner, noting his two Premier League titles, a Champions League win, and 378 appearances for Liverpool. The move adds experience and leadership to a squad rebuilding after relegation.

Robertson’s arrival coincides with Tottenham’s push to return to top‑flight contention. His 92 caps for Scotland will see him lead the national side at the upcoming World Cup. The free transfer strengthens Tottenham’s defensive core without a wage hit, positioning the club for a stronger campaign in the next Premier League season.

Johan Lange, Tottenham’s sporting director, highlighted Robertson’s character and commitment, saying his professionalism will aid the development of younger players. The acquisition follows a period of instability, with a new manager and fluctuating results. By securing a player who has consistently competed for major honours, Tottenham signals ambition to re‑establish itself among the league’s elite.
