Liverpool FC have reportedly informed Kostas Tsimikas that he remains part of their plans for next season, following the confirmed departure of Andrew Robertson.
Set For A Bigger Role
With Robertson leaving at the end of his contract, Liverpool are reshaping their options at left-back.
The plan now appears clear:
👉 Kostas Tsimikas will be kept on as a key squad option
👉 He is expected to act as deputy to incoming option Milos Kerkez
Loan Spell And Uncertain Future
The 29-year-old spent the season on loan at AS Roma, where his future has remained uncertain.
Limited minutes (just over 1,000 this season) Roma not pushing to sign him permanently Previously linked with a January return
👉 It’s been a mixed spell.
A Cost-Effective Solution
From Liverpool’s perspective, keeping Tsimikas makes sense:
No transfer fee required Experience at the top level Strong understanding of the club
👉 Especially important with both Robertson and Mohamed Salah expected to depart
Will He Accept A Backup Role?
The big question now:
👉 Will Tsimikas be happy as second choice?
This wouldn’t be new — he has spent much of his Liverpool career as backup.
But:
At 29, he may want regular football A strong offer could change his thinking
Contract Situation To Consider
Tsimikas is currently under contract until 2027, leaving Liverpool with a decision:
Keep him as reliable depth Or sell if a suitable offer arrives
👉 A situation to watch closely this summer.
The Bottom Line
Liverpool have made their stance clear:
👉 Tsimikas is part of the plan
But whether he’s happy to stay in a supporting role…
👉 Could decide how this story unfolds.
