Andrew Robertson completes move to Liverpool on long-term deal

Liverpool complete the signing of Andy Robertson from Hull City on a long-term deal for a fee of around £10m.

Liverpool have announced the signing of Scotland international left-back Andrew Robertson from Hull City on a long-term deal.

The 23-year-old becomes the Reds' third signing of the summer, joining Dominic Solanke and Mohamed Salah in making the move to Anfield.

Robertson, who featured 33 times in the Premier League last season for relegated Hull, was granted permission to return early from the Tigers' pre-season training camp in Portugal earlier this week to complete a medical at Melwood.

Former Queen's Park and Dundee United defender Robertson has now finalised his switch to Merseyside, thought to be worth around £10m, admitting that he is struggling to take it all in.

"It feels a wee bit surreal just now," he told his new side's official website. "Obviously I'm delighted. There's been a lot of speculation over the last couple of weeks but I'm glad that the deal's finally been done and I'm a Liverpool player.

"My family are proud of what I've achieved so far and they're all over the moon with the move, as well as me of course. We're all just looking forward to being part of the Liverpool family now. There's not many, if any, more special clubs than Liverpool.

"When you grow up as a kid you dream of playing with big clubs such as Liverpool and to make that a reality is a dream come true for me. I just want to prove to people that I can do it at this level, and hopefully I manage to do that this season and go on to do good things for this club."

Robertson will compete with James Milner and Alberto Moreno for a starting spot next season.
