AC Milan are weighing up a surprise move to sign Andy Robertson on a free transfer, with the Liverpool vice-captain entering the final months of his contract at Anfield.

Milan are eager to add leadership and top-level experience to a defensive unit that has undergone major changes in recent months.

Following the departure of Theo Hernandez last summer, the Rossoneri brought in Pervis Estupiñán as a replacement.

However, the Ecuador international has struggled to find consistency in his debut season in Serie A, and is already being linked with a potential exit.

As a result, Robertson has emerged as one of the primary options to strengthen Milan’s left flank.

Andy Robertson will go down as a Liverpool legend

For Liverpool, the departure of Robertson would mark the end of an era.

Since arriving from Hull City in 2017, the Scotland international has cemented his status as a club legend, playing a vital role under Jurgen Klopp, helping the club win multiple trophies including the Champions League and Premier League,

However, Liverpool’s long-term planning is already underway. The club signed Milos Kerkez last summer, and the 22-year-old has largely taken over as the first-choice left-back this season.

Robertson has started just six Premier League matches this term, with Slot preferring Kerkez ahead of him.

A return to his boyhood club Celtic has been widely discussed, while interest from Atletico Madrid remains in the background.

Despite opportunities to leave in both the summer and January transfer windows, including interest from Tottenham, Robertson chose to remain at Anfield for the season.

Allowing a player of his experience and leadership to leave on a free transfer would be a significant blow, specially with Mohamed Salah also set to leave in the summer.
