Andrew Robertson is a distinguished Scottish professional footballer, currently playing as a left-back for Premier League club Liverpool and serving as the captain of the Scotland national team. His career began at Queen’s Park in 2012, where he quickly made a name for himself, earning the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year award in his first season. His impressive performances led to a transfer to Dundee United, where he continued to excel, scoring his first goal and being recognized as the SPFL Young Player of the Month multiple times.
In July 2014, Robertson joined Hull City for £2.85 million, where he played a pivotal role in the team’s promotion to the Premier League. His determination and skill were evident as he helped Hull navigate the challenges of relegation and promotion over three seasons. In July 2017, he made a significant move to Liverpool for an initial fee of £8 million. Since then, Robertson has become an integral part of the team, contributing to their Champions League victory in 2019 and the Premier League title in 2020, among other honors.
On the international stage, Robertson made his debut for Scotland in 2014 and was appointed captain in 2018. He has represented his country in major tournaments, including UEFA Euro 2020 and Euro 2024, and holds the record for the most caps as a male captain for Scotland. His leadership and performance have been instrumental in revitalizing the national team.
Beyond his on-field achievements, Robertson is also known for his charitable work, founding the AR26 Charity to support underprivileged children in Scotland. His memoir, released in 2020, further highlights his commitment to giving back. In recognition of his contributions to football and charity, he was appointed MBE in 2023, solidifying his status as a role model both on and off the pitch.
