Antonee Robinson issues three-word update after Fulham setback amid transfer rumours
Fulham left-back Antonee Robinson has delivered a new update as he aims to recover from his recent setback.
The American international enjoyed another impressive season with the Cottagers during the 2024/25 campaign, where he continues to be one of the top performing full-backs in the league.
As a result, he has been the subject of interest from elsewhere, and Football Insider reported earlier this season that Liverpool and Man United were targeting Robinson.
Even so, the 27-year-old seemingly currently has other more pressing issues to focus on, following a recent update.
Antonee Robinson recovering from surgery
Last week, Fulham revealed that Robinson has undergone minor knee surgery, and had been set to enter a rehabilitation period.
That is with a view to the left-back being fit and available for the start of the 2025/26 campaign, when the Cottagers will be looking to build on their 11th place finish in the Premier League this season.
Now it appears as though the former Wigan ace has wasted no time in starting his work towards getting himself back in contention for a place on the side.
Taking to his Instagram story on Tuesday (3 June), Robinson posted a picture from the club’s gym, with his knee visibly strapped and plastered.
The Fulham star then accompanied that image with a written update that simply read: “Back to work”.
Fulham facing a nervous summer even with injury progress
Football Insider Verdict
While it is a positive sign for him that Robinson is making progress in his recovery, the Cottagers are still going to be anxious about his situation going forward.
With the left-back attracting the sort of interest he is already, it may be hard for them to keep hold of him should bids come in once the market opens.
Robinson has been a major asset for the club in recent season, and his departure would be a big loss as an asset who can win games for them with his ability.
Of course, it is understood that Fulham are also concerned about losing manager Marco Silva this summer, since he too will be attracting admiring glances for the work he has done at Craven Cottage.
As a result, this is a period where those at the club look as though they could come under some significant pressure as they bid to keep hold of their key figures.
