Liverpool chiefs are planning to open talks over a new contract with Andy Robertson this summer. According to English media, the club wants to discuss a new contract with Robertson, after appointing a new coach and sporting director. Liverpool leaders are confident Robertson will renew his contract, but interest from one of Europe's giants could complicate matters.
Bayern Munich are said to be interested in Robertson's services, given the fact that, in all likelihood, the Bavarians will lose Alphonso Davies next season. The latter is expected to join Real Madrid.
Robertson is very popular among Liverpool fans and has been a very important factor in the success of "The Reds" in recent years. We recall that Robertson joined Liverpool in 2017 from Hull City for just 8 million pounds. His current contract expires in 2026, but club chiefs want to make sure Robertson's future is at Anfield.
Robertson is the defender with the second most assists in the Premier League, while his team-mate Alexander-Arnold holds the top spot. The Englishman is also in Liverpool's plans for the future and the board are preparing a new contract for the defender.
Meanwhile, at Anfield it is still not clear who will be Jurgen Klopp's replacement at the head of the bench. The name of Xabi Alonso is the most curved in the media, but the coach of Bayer Leverkusen seems to be skeptical about taking on such an important task. The Spaniard's current contract with Leverkusen expires in 2026, and Alonso is keen to lead the club for at least next season, given that the team will play in the UEFA Champions League.
