With Tottenham finally securing their Premier League status, courtesy of a 1-0 victory at home against Everton on the final day, they can now start making plans for the summer with a little more certainty, and reporter Ben Jacobs has revealed Robertson is set to move to north London.
The left-back is available on a free transfer, having played his final game for Liverpool in the 1-1 draw against Brentford on Sunday, and he would arrive at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a wealth of top-level experience, having won two Premier League titles and the Champions League.
Signing a new centre-back may also be important in the upcoming window, given the uncertainty surrounding Cristian Romero's future, with Barcelona making an approach to sign the Argentinian, who was recently slammed by Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville.
Following reports Romero wasn't initially planning to be at the Everton game, Neville said: "They are coming here today to support their team and the captain or the club is considering not be here for the last game of the season. Bad decision. Poor choice.
"What are you thinking? Did you not think he’d been spotted back in Argentina? Did you not think he’d be seen as missing in action?"
Tottenham now in advanced talks to sign new centre-back
According to a report from The Daily Mail, sporting director Johan Lange and chief executive Vinai Venkatesham want to add 'leaders' to Roberto De Zerbi's squad in the summer, which explains the interest in Robertson and AFC Bournemouth centre-back Marcos Senesi.
Spurs are now in advanced talks to sign Senesi, who rakes in £50k-a-week, with his Bournemouth contract set to expire at the end of June, and the Cherries have already confirmed he is set to move on.
Losing the Argentinian could be a real blow for incoming manager Marco Rose, given the vital role he played in Bournemouth qualifying for the Europa League, missing just one Premier League match across the season.
Lauded as "absolutely outstanding" by content creator Seb Martin, the 29-year-old displayed a real willingness to put his body on the line, averaging 1.3 blocks per 90, which is the joint-third highest in the entire top flight.
Romero, on the other hand, has to be called into question for his initial decision to remain in Argentina, before making a U-turn and travelling back to London for the final game of the season.
The Spurs captain received criticism throughout the campaign, with Simon Jordan laying into him last month, and it may be better to let him leave this summer, with Senesi showcasing that he could be a solid replacement.
