At the age of 31, Andy Robertson is on the cusp of winning his second Premier League title medal – and will be aiming to lift the Carabao Cup for the third time when the Reds face Newcastle at Wembley.
Andy Robertson refuses to accept that the last dance is about to begin for one of Liverpool’s greatest teams.
At the age of 31, Robertson is on the cusp of winning his second Premier League title medal – and will be aiming to lift the Carabao Cup for the third time when the Reds face Newcastle at Wembley.
Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold are out of contract at the end of the season, while goalkeeper Alisson is another member of the 30-something club.
But while Robertson is under no illusions that the clock is ticking on Arne Slot ’s Liverpool side, the Scottish international insists the end is not yet in sight.
Robertson said: “You see the age of the players who have been here a long time – and obviously there’s a few of us in our 30s.
“At the end of the day, it always has to come to an end – but the lads have made it clear that they want to continue here with this fantastic club.
“So we’re not really looking at it as the last dance. I think players come and go all the time. That’s part and parcel of football at every club.
“We’ve lost players pretty much every year since I’ve been here and, look, football changes all the time.
“People want new players into our club, people want players out. That’s just the world we live in. That’s fans for you. That’s everything else for you. There’s always somebody elsewhere that they like the look of.
“What we’ve done so well this season is focus on every game that’s come our way.
“I think you’ve seen in our attitude and our concentration, especially in the Premier League. It has been spot-on up to now and we have to continue that to the end of the season.”
