Andy Robertson, one of the captains of Liverpool, assured that his commitment to the club was never in question, despite the interest shown by Tottenham in January, confirming the truth of these reports, and stated that negotiations regarding his contractual future will not be discussed publicly. The two clubs had conversations during the winter transfer window after the Scottish international lost his starting position this season following the arrival of Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth, but the 31-year-old athlete ultimately decided to stay at Anfield at a time when the team was facing a wave of injuries in the defensive sector. "There was obviously interest. There were talks between the two clubs, but the decision was that I wanted to stay. We stayed at Liverpool, and that was the decision made," the player confirmed to ESPN. In the final year of his contract this summer, making him a free and appealing player in the market, Robertson assures that his focus has never wavered. "I have never stopped being committed. I have been committed to Liverpool for eight and a half or nine years, and I will be committed until I am no longer needed. That has always been my mentality," he emphasized, adding: "This club has given me everything, and I have given everything to this club. It has been a fantastic relationship, so I hope it continues. What happened in January happened, but now it’s in the past." Regarding his future, the Scottish defender was clear in stating that the process will be handled internally, out of respect for the club's management. "I have always said that this will remain between me and the club. I don’t think it will be discussed publicly. I have a fantastic relationship with Richard [Hughes], Mike Gordon, and Michael Edwards," he explained. "Out of respect for them, and them for me, the conversations will be internal. When a decision is made, and we are reaching a point where I only have three months left on my contract, it will be announced to you," he revealed. Robertson was one of the standout figures in Liverpool's victory over Wolverhampton in the FA Cup last Friday, with a goal and an assist at Molineux. The player believes the team can still finish the season strong, despite inconsistent performances. "My goal is to win trophies with Liverpool. That has always been my focus," he declared. "We are out of the League Cup, so we have two opportunities [Champions League and FA Cup]. If we have more performances like Friday's, we have a chance. If we play like we did on Tuesday, we have no chance at all. We need to find that consistency," he concluded, expressing the desire for the season to end with "a smile on everyone's face."
