Robertson speaks out

at left-back next season. The star looks set to arrive at Anfield this summer, while Robertson has just a year remaining on his contract.

The Scotland international has confidence in himself to continue to challenge for a place and believes he still has a lot to give. "We're not daft, it looks as if a deal could potentially be done," Robertson told .

"But, until that is done, I've not even given that a second thought. I back myself, I've got confidence in my own ability and that drives me forward.

"I've had eight fantastic years at in terms of winning trophies, being a mainstay in the team, which I'm incredibly proud of. I'm not getting any younger, I can't change my age, but I still believe I've got a lot to give and that's what I focus on.

"I focus on myself - you can't focus on other people or who you're competing with. I still believe I have a hell of a lot to give for however many years I can keep going. My body feels good at the minute.

"I can't tell you how I'll feel at 33 or 34, but I can tell you, at 31, I feel excellent. I've been fit for every game, I've not missed a training session and that's not a sign of someone who is slowing down.

Wirtz drama

Florian Wirtz is set to be at the centre of a 'million-dollar dispute' when he completes his transfer to Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen. According to a report from , the German side are set to receive plenty of attention from Koln as they attempt to ensure they receive all the money they are entitled to.

"Of course, we are looking into it," Wolf said on Radio Cologne. "We know what we are entitled to and will fight for it. We're looking at this with both eyes. We'll benefit from it. The higher the sum Liverpool is willing to pay, the better for us."

Per FIFA's rules, any club that has played a role in a player's development between the age of 12 and 23 will receive five per cent of any transfer fee in compensation. Wirtz trained with Koln for nine-and-a-half years from the age of seven.

Koln are said to be planning to argue that Wirtz's 'training' period concluded long before he turned 23 as a result of him earning his Leverkusen at 17 and becoming a Germany international when he was 18. This is in hope of proving they are entitled to the maximum amount of compensation from any transfer.

The side could be due around £6.3m if Liverpool end up paying Leverkusen's £126m asking price. Koln are set to engage with the FIFA Clearing House to ensure the highest payout possible.
