'Top of the list': Jamie Carragher tips Liverpool to make move for 'outstanding' Premier League player in January
Today at 12:00 PM
Liverpool head into the January transfer window as arguably the best side in Europe after an incredible first half of the season under Arne Slot.
The Reds go into Christmas day top of the Premier League with the Anfield side also sitting in first place in the UEFA Champions League standings, with Liverpool also the firm favourites to retain the League Cup next year.
With Liverpool interested in signing players for four positions in 2025, next year could be an exciting one for Slot’s side if they manage to win silverware as well as refresh the squad with a number of promising new additions.
And Jamie Carragher has already suggested Liverpool to sign one player who made a mockery out of Mohamed Salah earlier this season.
Antonee Robinson tipped to be ‘top of the list’ for Liverpool in January
Speaking on Sky Sports Super Sunday coverage, the pundit shared his eagerness towards Liverpool making a move for Fulham defender Antonee Robinson, who flourished against the Reds earlier this month at Anfield.
Robinson liked comments suggesting he should move to Liverpool shortly after Fulham’s 2-2 draw with Slot’s side in the Premier League, with former USA international Charlie Davies backing the left-back to move to a top side in 2025.
And Carragher is now keen to see Robinson make the move to Liverpool next year, with the former Merseyside defender saying when asked if he wants to see the 27-year-old at Anfield: "He was outstanding, he was the best player on the pitch [vs Liverpool].
“When you are going to Anfield and you are playing against Mo Salah, possibly the best player in the Premier League this season, and you come out of it with a Man of the Match award, that shows you how highly he is thought of. I think Liverpool probably will be shopping for a left-back in January, and I'm sure he will be top of the list."
Robinson is the clear favourite to replace Andy Robertson at Liverpool
With Carragher also urging Liverpool to sign competition for Andy Robertson in January, there’s a real chance that a new left-back will be signed in the coming weeks if the right deal for the right player can be reached.
And all signs are pointing towards Robinson being that player for Liverpool, with the Fulham defender in sensational form this season and showing why he’s ready for a big transfer in 2025 to a Champions League.
Indeed, although Fulham could demand a hefty sum for Robinson, Liverpool are in a position where the right signing could lead to silverware next year, and the USA international could help in that mission in 2025.
