In a detailed Instagram post, the Dutchman concluded: “You came as teammates, you leave as legends… and more importantly, you leave as family.”
Andy Robertson responded: “Brother ”
What next for Robertson and Salah?
The ever-reliable David Ornstein at The Athletic confirmed that the Scotsman is potentially due to join up with Roberto De Zerbi’s struggling Tottenham outfit in the summer.
As for Salah, potential takers remain to be seen.
Some reports indicated that the likes of Bayern Munich might be keen on snapping up the Premier League winner. However, it’s our understanding that such claims are incredibly wide of the mark.
Far more likely, in our view, is a potential switch to the Middle East, or perhaps even the MLS, as our No.11 looks to wind down his playing career.
Whatever the case, there’s no question we owe both players an immense debt of gratitude for their contributions to a genuine golden age at Liverpool Football Club.
