Trent Alexander-Arnold reacted publicly after news emerged that Andy Robertson is set to leave Liverpool. The former Reds right-back posted a photo on Instagram showing the two players celebrating the club’s Premier League triumph in 2020.
Alongside the image, Trent wrote a short but emotional message, calling Robertson a legend forever. Many Liverpool fans are likely to agree with that view, given everything the Scotland international achieved during his time at Anfield.
Liverpool say goodbye to another key figure
Robertson’s departure marks another major change for Liverpool, with Mohamed Salah also heading out this summer. Both players had been linked with moves away from the club for some time before their exits were confirmed.
Speaking about his decision, Robertson admitted leaving Liverpool was never simple. He explained that he had chances to go before, especially over the past year, but chose to stay because of his deep connection to the club. Now, however, he feels the moment has come to take the next step in his career.
Teammates and club figures praise his legacy
Robertson leaves behind an outstanding record at Liverpool. During his spell at the club, he won two Premier League titles, two League Cups, the FA Cup, the Champions League, the FIFA Club World Cup, the UEFA Super Cup and the Community Shield.
The reaction from people connected with Liverpool showed how highly he is regarded. Jordan Henderson described him as a legend, while Jamie Carragher used the same word. Caoimhin Kelleher also paid tribute, calling Robertson a proper legend. Alexis Mac Allister thanked him for everything and praised him as a top person, leader and player. Conor Bradley also shared an emotional farewell.
Several clubs are linked with his next move
Robertson said Liverpool has played a huge role in his life and in the life of his family over the last nine years. He added that he had given his heart and soul to the club and always wanted to make the supporters proud every time he stepped onto the pitch.
Even though he knows his journey at Anfield is ending, Robertson stressed that he will continue to give everything until his final day. Reports suggest Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Napoli are all interested in signing him once his contract comes to an end.
