Tottenham have opened talks with Liverpool over the signing of Scotland captain Andy Robertson, Press Association understands. Robertson has made 363 appearances for Liverpool since he joined from Hull in 2017 but has found his starting spot taken this season by summer recruit Milos Kerkez and has entered the final six months of his contract at Anfield. Liverpool vice-captain Robertson revealed earlier this months talks were still taking place with the club over a new deal but Spurs have entered preliminary discussions with their Premier League rivals over securing the services of the 31-year-old, PA understands. Atletico Madrid attempted last summer to sign Robertson, who opted to stay at Anfield but could now swap Merseyside for London. Tottenham have struggled under Thomas Frank in recent months and first-choice left-back Destiny Udogie has been hampered by injury problems, which would open the door for Robertson to take on a fresh challenge and earn more regular football.
