'I'm not sure' - Celtic dealt transfer blow in pursuit of Liverpool man as reporter shares update

Celtic have the chance to bring in some new faces this summer to bolster their squad

Reporter Pete O’Rourke has poured cold water on Celtic’s links to Andy Robertson. The journalist believes the left-back will have some more attractive offers this summer, despite him being a boyhood Hoops fan. His contract at Liverpool expires at the end of the season.

Martin O’Neil’s side are in the title race along with Hearts and Rangers. They won 3-1 at home against Motherwell over the weekend. Yang Hyun-Jun scored twice at Celtic Park, whilst Tomas Cvancara also managed to find the net.

Celtic latest regarding Andy Robertson links

O’Rourke has shared this update regarding Celtic’s reported interest in Robertson, as per a report by Football Insider: “Robertson is a boyhood Celtic fan, it’s a move that would tug on the heart strings. But I don’t think there’s any more to it than that right now. It does seem that Robertson and Liverpool are willing to make a decision at the end of the season and they won’t rush into anything.

“It’ll be Robertson’s decision what he wants to do. At this stage of his career, he still probably want to play at the highest level possible.

“I’m sure there’ll be rival Premier League interest in Robertson’s signature if he does become a free agent and I think there’ll be interest from abroad as well. He’s had interest from Tottenham of course and Atletico Madrid as well last summer. So I think it’ll be a difficult deal to do for Celtic at this stage, I’m not sure it’s something he will be entirely keen on if other clubs come calling.”

What now for Andy Robertson amid Celtic links?

Liverpool have a big decision to make on what to do with Robertson. They risk losing him for free in June if nothing changes. If he becomes available, he would have a big decision to make regarding his next move.

The Scotland international, 32, has made 90 caps for his country and he will be at the World Cup later this year. He has been a great servant to his current club over recent times. The full-back has made 371 appearances in all competitions and has chipped in with 13 goals from the back.

Robertson had spells at Queen’s Park and Dundee United before moving down the border to England in 2024. He initially signed for Hull City and spent three years with the Tigers. Liverpool came calling in 2017 and he hasn’t looked back since.
