It comes with the 31-year-old telling Liverpool he wants to join Tottenham<\/a> after surprising links emerged on Friday.<\/p>\n

The Scotsman is out of contract this summer and has lost his starting place to Milos Kerkez, so an exit in the future did seem likely.<\/p>\n

Former Liverpool coach\u2019s role in Andy Robertson to Tottenham<\/p>\n

However, the Spurs links were sudden and seemingly came out of nowhere.<\/p>\n

Now, though, journalist Dean Jones has shed some light on why the Lilywhites suddenly decided to move for Robertson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jones suggested John Heitinga\u2019s arrival at Tottenham played an important role, with the coach, of course, spending the 2024\/25 season as an assistant under Slot at Liverpool<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He said on his Patreon<\/a>: \u201cThe most random story of the day was Andy Robertson \u2192 Tottenham. It\u2019s important to realise that while Spurs already had an eye on him, the arrival of John Heitinga seems to have sparked this one into life more suddenly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have a good relationship from working together at Liverpool. It has a chance of happening. You may have seen that Spurs also have an eye on Curtis Jones, and there is indeed something in that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Slot is backing Liverpool for a top-four finish. Where do you think the Reds will end 25\/26? <\/p>\n

Slot predicted Liverpool will earn Champions League football in his pre-Bournemouth press conference!<\/p>\n

Liverpool can\u2019t sell Curtis Jones to Tottenham<\/p>\n

As Dean Jones mentioned, Tottenham have been linked to Curtis Jones<\/a> as well this winter.<\/p>\n

The Liverpool midfielder is a divisive figure<\/a> among the fanbase and can be quite an inconsistent player.<\/p>\n

However, there is simply no way the Reds can allow the Englishman to leave Anfield this month.<\/p>\n

Slot doesn\u2019t expect Liverpool to make any signings<\/a> in January, and allowing Jones to depart would take away any midfield depth they have.<\/p>\n

Wataru Endo would then be the only natural cover for Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister, and the Japan international has played just 242 minutes of football this season.<\/p>\n
