Andy Robertson to Atletico Madrid: Reports indicate Atletico Madrid have made Robertson a top target to replace Reinildo and Cesar Azpilicueta, whose contracts expire in 2025. Liverpool’s imminent signing of Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth (£45m) has raised doubts about Robertson’s future, with his contract entering its final year (expiring June 2026). Fabrizio Romano reports Robertson is keen on joining Atletico, and talks have begun, with Diego Simeone’s side targeting the 31-year-old Scotland captain. Liverpool may demand a fee to avoid losing him for free next year, though no formal bid has been confirmed.
Julian Alvarez to Liverpool: Liverpool have been repeatedly linked with Atletico’s Julian Alvarez, who scored 29 goals in his debut 2024/25 season after an £81.5m move from Manchester City. Despite interest from Liverpool and Arsenal, Atletico president Enrique Cerezo firmly stated, “Julian Alvarez is an Atletico Madrid player and will be an Atletico Madrid player,” ruling out a sale. However, speculation persists about a potential cash-plus-player swap involving Robertson and possibly Darwin Nunez, who Atletico also admire. Alvarez’s agent confirmed Liverpool’s interest last summer, but no official offer has been made, and Alvarez is reportedly happy in Madrid.
