Andy Robertson will leave Liverpool at the end of the current season after nine years at Anfield, the Premier League club announced Thursday.

The Scotland defender has won two Premier League titles, a Champions League, the FA Cup, two League Cups as well as the FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup and Community Shield since joining from Hull City in 2017.

“After nine hugely successful campaigns at Anfield, the Scotland captain will leave the club upon the expiry of his contract this summer,” Liverpool said in a news release.

“He will do so as a genuine Liverpool legend, having played a fundamental role in the successes of recent years over the course of his 373 appearances to date.”

Robertson’s contract expires in the summer and he has lost his place in the first team this season following the arrival of Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth.

The 32-year-old has been limited to just 15 starts this season

ESPN reported that Liverpool entered talks with Tottenham Hotspur over a potential transfer in January after Robertson indicated his interest in a move, however he ultimately decided to remain at Anfield amid a host of defensive injuries.
