Andy Robertson has been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur from Liverpool before the January transfer window closes.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot has hinted he would prefer to keep Andy Robertson at the club amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The left-back is a player of interest to Spurs while the January transfer window nears its conclusion.
Tottenham have until February 2 to complete their transfer business for the window, and it remains to be seen if Robertson will make the move to north London before the deadline.
Reports emerged on Friday claiming Tottenham have an interest in signing Robertson from Liverpool
Robertson was named on the bench by Slot for Liverpool's 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday evening - but did replace Milos Kerkez at the half-time break and played the entirety of the second half.
Slot was asked about Robertson's future at Liverpool amid interest from Tottenham, with the Reds' head coach hinting that he wants to keep the left-back at Anfield moving forward.
"I think I need all of my players," Slot told Sky Sports.
"I thought, let's bring Robbo in at half-time to make sure Milos [Kerkez] stays available for the rest of the season, because there are a lot of games to be played with the players that are available.
"I have to manage that as well because the last thing we need right now is another injury."

Slot went on to be quizzed about Liverpool's potential transfer business before the deadline - with the manager going on to deliver a clear message.
"No updates in terms of transfers," Slot said. "I never speak in public about transfers. There's nothing to say on my side."
Thomas Frank was also asked about Tottenham’s chances of signing Robertson after their 2-2 draw with Burnley, with the Spurs boss specifically asked if the left-back could have made a difference in the game.
"Just on that one, in general as you don't know me that well, I don't speak about players that are not in the club - except [Cristiano] Ronaldo and [Lionel] Messi," Frank said.
He went on: "So, that's no comment."
Tottenham will be in Champions League action in their next match on Wednesday night as they travel to take on Eintracht Frankfurt in their final league phase fixture.
