Wrexham full-back target Andy Robertson has been linked with a free transfer move to AC Milan this summer.
Recently, Wrexham caught up with the latest transfer update on their dream summer target, Harry Wilson. Though the Welsh star remains an ambitious target if the Reds go up, Everton’s strong position in his transfer race has all but ruled Wrexham out.
The likely heartbreak over Harry Wilson may not be the only one awaiting Wrexham this summer. Even as the club pushes for a Premier League promotion, they’ve been hit with another unwelcome update on a dream summer signing.
The player in question is Andy Robertson. Despite being among the names on Wrexham’s summer shortlist, the full-back’s recent transfer links come as a blow to the Reds’ hopes.
Wrexham’s interest in Andy Robertson
Wrexham’s interest in Liverpool star Andy Robertson stems from a culmination of leadership and sporting reasons.
First and foremost, the club hold Robertson’s career credentials in high regard. A two‑time Premier League winner who has been a mainstay at Liverpool for nearly a decade, he embodies the kind of leadership Wrexham believe can help them achieve their long‑term ambitions.
Furthermore, Robertson could bring valuable experience and mentality to the Wrexham side after having won trophies like the Champions League and the Club World Cup in his decorated career.
Apart from these reasons, Wrexham’s interest in Robertson stems from their full-back struggles. There’s nothing hidden in the fact that Liberato Cacace’s fitness concerns have disappointed the club.
With Cacace starting back-to-back games only once this season, the player’s injury woes have held back Wrexham significantly. Even though his quality is unquestionable, Cacace’s signing hasn’t worked out as hoped.
As of now, Cacace doesn’t appear as a permanent first-choice left wing-back for the Reds. This invites the club to look for proven options like Andy Robertson. Given that the latter is available for a free transfer this summer, Wrexham would fancy their chances of making him the priority signing for the position.
AC Milan are willing to sign Andy Robertson
Though Wrexham remain admirers of Robertson, it’s hardly surprising that the Premier League star is on several European clubs’ transfer radar. While he had been previously linked to Tottenham and Celtic, the clubs have been joined by Serie A giants AC Milan in his transfer race.
Recently, Calcio Mercato updated on Milan’s interest in acquiring the 32-year-old full-back. With prodigy Davide Bartesaghi still establishing himself at the senior level, Robertson’s signature could help fast-track the youngster’s development while providing competition for his spot.
AC Milan’s interest in recruiting veteran stars has been worth noting recently. Having brought together a core of experienced players like Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot, Robertson could be another addition to the club’s young‑old experiment.

Milan’s experiment in bringing together veteran players with young talent has been a success. After a disastrous 2024/25 campaign, the club is now on course to secure a Champions League berth for next season.
If that happens, the Serie A giants will fancy their chances of landing Liverpool star Andy Robertson even more. For the left-back, an AC Milan move could be a fresh start away from England after the defender stood hesitant on the idea of a Celtic return as of now.
Can Wrexham still complete Andy Robertson’s free transfer?
Like Harry Wilson, Andy Robertson is attracting serious interest from other clubs and with no visible activity from Wrexham, their chances appear to be fading. But the Reds can’t be ruled out of the full-back’s transfer race just yet.
That’s because Wrexham also possess several factors that could position them as a suitable choice once Robertson sits down to finalise his future.
It’s worth noting that Robertson has spent his entire career in the UK, and aside from Premier League club Tottenham, Wrexham remain interested in acquiring him.
If Wrexham manage to reach the top-flight this term, they can fancy a transfer move for Andy Robertson. Given Tottenham’s situation amidst relegation fears, the full-back would prefer a project like Wrexham if the Reds manage to secure Premier League status.
Even if Wrexham slip up in their promotion effort, their chances aren’t just over. With no World Cup edition near after the 2026 WC, Robertson might not strictly prioritise top-flight football.
If Wrexham’s story resonates with him, the full‑back could still be drawn to the project. The prospect of linking up with fellow Scot Dom Hyam might also add to the appeal when Robertson weighs up his future.
