Tottenham Hotspur have now taken a significant step towards landing Andy Robertson on a free transfer this summer, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Robertson appeared all set for a move to Tottenham during the winter transfer window, but the deal fell through in the end, with Liverpool blocking the 31-year-old’s switch to Spurs.
A few days ago, the experienced Tottenham target confirmed that he will be leaving Anfield when his contract runs out in the summer.
It appears that the North Londoners are wasting no time in trying to secure a deal for the Liverpool left-back.

A couple of days ago, David Ornstein revealed that Spurs are leading the race to sign Robertson ahead of the summer window.
Fabrizio Romano has now gone a step further, stating that Spurs have reached a verbal agreement with the Scotland international regarding the terms of his contract.
The journalist added that the experienced full-back is set to join Tottenham in the summer as long as they remain in the Premier League.

Romano wrote on X: “Tottenham have a verbal agreement to sign Andy Robertson in June 2026, all terms in place. Nothing signed/sealed yet as staying in Premier League will be a key factor ahead of proceeding. Robertson, ready to pick THFC project if relegation battle has positive outcome.”
Who are the other clubs chasing Robertson?
While Tottenham appear to be at the front of the queue to land the Liverpool star, the defender’s other suitors have not given up just yet.
It was reported earlier this week that Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Napoli are ready to challenge Spurs for Robertson’s signature this summer.
