A Liverpool legend has dropped a bombshell to reveal transfer turmoil behind the scenes at the club. A top star has thrown his future at Anfield into doubt with a few public words that the club chiefs would have preferred to keep in-house for the moment.
Liverpool have several big decisions to make this summer, apart from their plans to improve a squad that won the Premier League title last season.
They have shown intent and ambition in their moves and are set to break the British transfer record with their pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz in the ongoing window.
However, the Reds have a few key calls they want to get right, and a Liverpool star’s decision to drop a bombshell on his future at the club in the middle of the transfer window was not part of their plans.

Liverpool veteran hero Andy Robertson drops transfer bombshell
Andy Robertson has a year left on his contract at Liverpool, and he has revealed discussions have already taken place with the club over a new deal.
However, he insisted that he is not sure what is going to happen in a year’s time and for now, he just wants to enjoy his break and return fresh for pre-season later in the summer.
“We have discussed [my future], of course we have. We’ve had good discussions, me and the club, but what the future holds, I’m not sure”, Robertson said on Sky Sports.
“All I know is I fly off on holiday and it’s well needed. I need a rest after a long season, and then I look forward to pre-season. That’s all my focus is.
“I can’t look too far ahead, I never have done that, so I’m not going to start doing that now.
“I know the position I’m in, I know I’ve only got a year left. A lot’s getting spoken about it, a lot’s getting said, but my pure focus is on being a dad for the next couple of weeks and enjoying that time with the kids.
“Then I’ll try and come back in the best shape possible for pre-season, and then we’ll see what the future holds when those decisions come.”
