Liverpool currently sit atop the Premier League standings and are preparing to bolster their squad in the January transfer window.
Their recent 6-3 victory over Tottenham reinforced their status as favorites to win the league this season. Under Arne Slot’s management, Liverpool have displayed remarkable form and consistency—levels even surpassing those seen during Jürgen Klopp’s tenure.
However, to maintain their position as title contenders, reinforcements will be necessary. One key area for improvement is the left-back position, where Andy Robertson has struggled, and Kostas Tsimikas has faced fitness challenges.
Reports suggest Liverpool are targeting Fulham’s Antonee Robinson as their primary option for this role. Club legend Jamie Carragher, analyzing Robinson’s standout performance in Fulham’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool, shared on *Sky Sports*:
“He was exceptional, the best player on the pitch. To go to Anfield, face someone like Mo Salah—arguably the best player in the Premier League this season—and come away with a Man of the Match award speaks volumes. I believe Liverpool will look for a left-back in January, and he’ll be at the top of their list.”
Robinson, known for his defensive solidity and attacking capabilities, could provide the quality and depth Liverpool need in defense.
However, securing his transfer in January may prove challenging, as Fulham will likely resist losing one of their top players. Still, the prospect of a Premier League title might tempt the USA international to push for a move.
Additionally, Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies has also been linked with Liverpool as another potential left-back option.
