Robertson leaves a club where he spent nine seasons, won nine major honors and twice lifted the . He was also part of Liverpool's Champions League-winning squad in 2018-19, milestones that underline why several clubs are linked to him as a free agent.

Turned 32 in March, Robertson arrives at the summer market with a résumé few free agents can match and with options. pursued him in January and reportedly remain interested.
