Andrew Robertson is unlikely to be leaving Liverpool anytime soon, but when he does leave, he wants to return to Celtic.
Robertson was at Celtic as a youngster but was released by the club for being too small and wound up at amateur side Queen’s Park before making his way to the top of the game via Dundee United and Hull City.
The 28-year-old is now regarded as one of the best left-backs in the world and is valued at €78 million by FootballTransfers.

Nevertheless, he craves the opportunity to return to Parkhead when he eventually leaves Liverpool.
"Every time I watch Celtic, I consider it,” he told BT Sport’s ‘Currie Club’ podcast.
“When you watch them and see a packed Celtic Park... as a fan you always have that dream. Ideally I want to finish my career here at Liverpool. If I can stay at the top of my game, at the top of the tree my whole career, that’s the route I want to go down.
“But also, when I look at Celtic and when I was growing up, I was thinking I wanted to give them my best years. When I was at Queen’s Park I had a dream of still playing with Celtic and always dreamed of giving my best years to Celtic.
“And now I don’t want to go as a 34 or 35-year-old old guy that my uncles start hating on me because I can’t move any more! Time will tell. I’m very much a person who lives in the moment.
“I don’t look too far ahead and I don’t often look back. There will be a time for that.”
Robertson has been at Liverpool since 2017, when he made a €9m move from Hull, and has played 232 games for the club. He is best known for his industry and crossing, and enjoys a light-heartened rivalry with Reds right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.
