Atletico Madrid Make Andy Robertson Transfer Decision

By

Andy Robertson is reportedly willing to leave Liverpool after the Reds signed Milos Kerkez.

Atlético Madrid have dropped their interest in Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson in favour of a different target, with Atalanta’s Matteo Ruggeri now understood to be joining Diego Simeone’s side.

The Spanish giants were first linked with Robertson in the middle of June. Despite repeatedly stressing his desire to remain at the top level, reports claimed that the Scotland international was “keen to leave” Liverpool.

Robertson’s position in the squad has taken a significant hit following the confirmation of Milos Kerkez’s arrival. After months of speculation, the 21-year-old left back has finally sealed his move from Bournemouth to what he described as the “biggest club in England.”

Yet, those supposed aspirations of moving to La Liga have been dented by Atlético’s pursuit of Ruggeri. According to Fabrizio Romano, a deal for the Italian is now wrapped up, putting a firm end to any plans to sign Robertson.
