Andy Robertson confirms leaving Liverpool: ‘This club means everything to me’

Last Updated on 9 April 2026

Andy Robertson has confirmed he will leave Liverpool at the end of the 2025-26 season, bringing the curtain down on a near-decade of service at Anfield.

The Scottish left-back joined Liverpool from Hull City in 2017. He went on to make close to 400 appearances, winning the Premier League, Champions League and a host of other major honours.

Robertson says he feels relieved the news is out in the open and insists he remains fully focused on finishing the season strongly.

Speaking to the Liverpool’s official website, Robertson was characteristically humble about his legacy. He deflected suggestions he has become a Liverpool legend while crediting the fanbase for pushing him throughout his time at the club.

“This club means everything to me,” he said. “The fans mean everything to me. The people connected to the club mean everything to me.”

He revealed the decision had been building for some time, noting he had previously resisted opportunities to leave due to the emotional pull of the club. Robertson says he will give everything until his final day with the club.

Andy Robertson exit adds to Liverpool’s summer rebuild

Robertson’s decision has only made Liverpool’s summer rebuild more complex with doubts over Arne Slot growing. Mohamed Salah also announced his decision to leave the club, earlier, and after a summer of change, another one might be on the horizon.

The club has multiple holes in requirement of plugging and leftback is only one of the many. Kostas Tsimikas, currently on loan to Roma, is also out of contract in the summer. That means, the Reds will need to bring in a deputy behind Milos Kerkez.

Meanwhile, they already have Jeremy Jacquet joining from Rennes, while the rightback position has been a cause for concern throughout the 2025/26 campaign. Many would argue Liverpool are a midfielder short, too, and concerns around Curtis Jones’ future don’t help.

Even the front-line is in need of some investment after an uncharacteristically low-scoring campaign for the Reds. Despite spending upwards of £400 million in the 2025 summer, it looks like Liverpool will have to dish out a lot, again.
