Andy Robertson is a target for Rangers and Celtic as the Liverpool defender prepares to leave Anfield at the end of the season.

According to Sportmediaset on 13 April, the Scotland international is a target for the two Old Firm clubs ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

The news outlet reports that the two Glaswegian outfits are fighting to sign the 32-year-old, who will be a free agent in the summer once his contract with the Reds expires.

It has been claimed that Tottenham Hotspur and AC Milan are also in the race for the left-back's signature.

Danny Rohl will lose Jayden Meghoma in the coming months, and it remains to be seen how the Govan side bolster the left side of their defence.

Rangers to pull off the unexpected with Andy Robertson deal

There's no denying that a player like Robertson could be a brilliant signing for the Gers, especially if they're playing in the Champions League.

The 92-cap Scotland international has won everything there is to win with Liverpool, and despite his diminishing influence this season, the defender has shown he can still play at the top level.

Robertson's record at Liverpool

Robertson made his way through the youth ranks at Celtic and has made his admiration for the Hoops well-known over the years.

It would be surprising to see the left-back decide to breach the Old Firm divide by signing for the Light Blues as a free agent in the summer.

James Tavernier's Rangers future is uncertain at the moment, with the captain's contract expiring in May.

The 34-year-old Englishman has been one of the leading voices in the dressing room over the years and his absence will certainly be felt.

Jack Butland and Liam Kelly are the only other players over 30 in the Gers' current squad and Rohl arguably needs more leaders in the dressing room.

While fans in G51 will have a short-term focus on the title race, Andrew Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises should have one eye on the summer window.
