Liverpool plot Antonee Robinson raid – his stats are incredible
Liverpool are continuing to closely monitor Fulham defender Antonee Robinson, sources have told Football Insider.
The Premier League giants are in the market for a new left-back and their recruitment team regard the 27-year-old as a strong option, as first revealed by Football Insider in February.
Sources have told Football Insider that a move for the USA international is still on the cards and could take place as soon as the January transfer window.
Man United are also tracking Robinson due to Luke Shaw’s consistent injury problems throughout his time at Old Trafford.

Robinson is currently under contract at Craven Cottage until 2028.
