Former Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson believes Florian Wirtz has yet to live up to the expectations surrounding him since joining the Merseyside club.

The Germany attacking midfielder moved to Liverpool from Bayer in the summer of 2025 for 125m euros, but his performances have so far failed to match the public anticipation that accompanied the transfer.

Robertson, who now plays for Tottenham, has spoken about the difficulties Wirtz has encountered during his time at Liverpool.
