Liverpool officially makes serious move to Darwin Nunez replacement who is 26-year-old

Antonee Robinson has been one of the best fullbacks in the Premier League this season without getting much attention. Now, Liverpool wants to sign him.

Over the past year, the American has been absolutely fantastic for Fulham, and his game against Spurs this past weekend only showed how fantastic he is. Robinson would be a great addition to this Liverpool team, but it’s hard to say if it would be worth it to sign him until a new manager is hired.

Xabi Alonso is currently the favorite to get the job, and he has a very specific way of using his wide players. Right now, Jeremie Frimpong and Alex Grimaldo play almost more like wingers than full-backs.

Robinson is a good player, but it’s likely that he doesn’t have the precise skills to play that way.s.

The speedster tore Tottenham apart, and it’s only natural that big teams are now paying attention.

As Roma Live reports that Liverpool and Manchester City have talked about getting Robinson before the summer. Fulham is trying to sign Roma’s Leanardo Spinazzola as a replacement, which is why this story is on an Italian website.

Robinson would be great as a traditional fullback, though. His speed is scary—his top speed last season was only 0.06 mph slower than Darwin Nunez’s—and he’s great at making those overlapping runs, though his crossing isn’t very good.

But it sounds like the Reds are putting out feelers on this one. Only time will tell if they go through with the deal or not.

The Fulham star, who is 26 years old, is definitely ready to move to a big club. This summer, a move to Anfield may very well be on the cards.
