Andy Robertson: What does future hold for left-back with Liverpool and Scotland?

“All I can say is it’s not crossed my mind as of yet and I hope it doesn’t because I love playing for my country.

“It’s the biggest honour in football and I’ve done it 82 times now and I’ve still got that hunger to try and succeed and to try and help the young lads.

“There will be a point when the time comes, but I still believe I’ve got a good number of years left.”

Robertson’s Scotland head coach, Steve Clarke, who lifted the Cup Winners’ Cup as a 34-year-old at Chelsea in 1998, believes his captain will meet the challenge at club level and continue to lead his national team.

“If Andy decides to stay and fight for his place, I’m sure he’ll play enough,” he said. “He had to fight so hard to have a career and to build on that.

“I don’t see a decline in him. I see him coming here and playing well and I’ve watched him a number of times for Liverpool and I didn’t see any drop.

“Alex McLeish made a big decision when Andy was quite young and not long in the squad to make him the captain. When I came in, I saw no reason to change that captaincy and he’s been a fantastic captain for Scotland.”

With Sir Kenny Dalglish’s long-standing cap record just 20 appearances away, do not expect that to be a challenge that Robertson will shirk.
