Liverpool have ended talks with Tottenham over a potential move for Andy Robertson. The Premier League champions listened to the approach for their veteran left-back, who is out of contract this summer, but sources confirm they have no intention of selling. Robertson, 31, has started only four league games this season.

The decision comes amid defensive injury concerns at Anfield. Virgil van Dijk publicly stated he didn't want Robertson to leave, and manager Arne Slot wants to retain his squad for the Champions League and FA Cup runs. Robertson has remained a key figure in Europe, featuring in crucial matches against Madrid clubs and Inter Milan.

Tottenham boss Thomas Frank sought Robertson's experience to bolster his squad, but Liverpool's stance is firm. With Milos Kerkez now the first-choice left-back, Robertson's role has diminished domestically. However, his leadership and versatility remain valued, especially with Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni facing season-ending injuries.
