Wrexham keen to land Premier League legend Andy Robertson if they secure a record 4th promotion to the Top Flight this summer.
With the 2025/26 campaign in its final stages, Wrexham have begun planning to write the next chapter of their Hollywood story. It involves foreseeing the club’s sporting and branding endeavours for the next season in the English division.
Amidst the Reds’ ongoing promotion charge, their exact future remains uncertain. But be it in the Championship or the Premier League, Wrexham have made sure to make the season count as another memorable one for the fans.
Recently, the club announced a triple PL showdown for the 2026 US preseason tour. While that sounds exciting enough, it’s just the tip of the iceberg in Wrexham’s ambitious plans ahead of next campaign.
As per TEAMTalk, Wrexham look forward to supplementing this celebration with some dream signings if they reach the Premier League this term. One of the names on the Reds’ radar is that of PL legend Andy Robertson.
With the Liverpool full-back’s contract expiring this summer, Robertson is set to become a free agent. Wrexham are keen to capitalise on the opportunity by offering the veteran a competitive salary and a key role in their ambitious project.
Robertson’s missed Spurs move has Wrexham in contention
Having marked 300+ Top Flight appearances in an illustrious career spanning 9 trophies with Liverpool, Andy Robertson is a top Premier League icon.
While he has slipped to the role of a second-choice left-back at Liverpool, Robertson remains highly regarded in England. This is evident from the fact that he came incredibly close to joining Tottenham in January.
Given his contract expires in June, Liverpool and Spurs were in talks about a transfer in the region of around £5m for Robertson. But the move fell through at the last moment due to Liverpool’s inability to sign a replacement for the veteran left-back.
The understanding was that Robertson would remain at Anfield if Liverpool couldn’t secure a replacement in time. That scenario has played out, with the full-back continuing to serve the club as a model professional.

This transfer miss has kept Wrexham alive in their chances to land the two-time PL winner. While this miss was unfortunate on Tottenham’s part, Spurs are also partly to blame for this failure.
If Tottenham arrived with a better lucrative offer for Robertson, they might’ve ended any chance for Wrexham to land Robertson. However, this isn’t the first time Spurs may indirectly assist the Reds in their way ahead.
Given Spurs’ deteriorating form this Premier League campaign, the North London side could find themselves in the Championship come May. That would open up a top-flight spot and the allure of a Big Six identity for an ambitious Wrexham side.
Even though it’s still just a possibility, it would be exciting if Wrexham pounced on the brewing opportunity. Who knows? The Reds could end up taking both Tottenham’s Premier League spot and their left-back target, Andy Robertson, this summer.
Wrexham look to repeat tried-and-tested PL trick with Robertson
Time and again, the Premier League has seen newly promoted clubs bring in a veteran superstar to provide stability. High-profile successes like Granit Xhaka at Sunderland underscore the value of this tried-and-tested veteran formula.
Xhaka has been the pillar of Sunderland’s Premier League success this campaign. While Wrexham’s promotion story has seen them adopt a burn-and-churn player policy, the Reds will want to take inspiration from the Black Cats and build their team around a PL veteran.
For Wrexham, Andy Robertson emerges as a valid choice for that veteran role. A two-time league winner who has finished in the top six with Liverpool every season, Robertson is an ideal dressing room figure to help Wrexham establish its identity in the Premier League.
Giving Andy Robertson the armband and leader status could be a crucial step forward for an up-and-coming group like Wrexham. This transfer makes even more sense from a sporting perspective.
Despite bringing in Liberato Cacace last summer, Wrexham’s worries on the left wing haven’t been resolved. Instead, Cacace’s injury-prone status has made the Reds helpless in crucial games.
Not only can Andy Robertson lead Wrexham’s story in the PL, but his signing can also permanently fix the club’s woes on the left wing.
Overall, Andy Robertson is the kind of dream signing who could turn Wrexham’s ambitions into reality. But his arrival is conditional on Wrexham winning promotion. Let’s hope the Reds can secure a record 4th straight promotion to give themselves a chance of landing Robertson this summer.
