Fulham defender Antonee Robinson has insisted that he is fully focused at achieving success, despite speculations of a transfer away from the club.
The United States of America leftback has been one of the most consistent performers in the English league this season, and has provided ten assists this season only second to Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah who has 17.
The 27-year old who has helped his team to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup while the Cottagers also sit ninth in the standings, has stated his desire to play in Europe for the London club.
“So, transfer rumors and stuff like that, I try not to look at. Especially like with the Liverpool one, all my friends and family are from Liverpool, so it’s more of them messaging me than me seeing newspaper stuff. And I have to say, look, it’s just, just a story in the paper and anyone who’s doing well is going to get linked to a team”, he said.
Robinson was named the United States player of the year in 2024 and has been linked with a move away from the Craven Cottage, with top European clubs jostling for his signature.
“I’m truly focused on just reaching the level I feel I can, which takes a lot of work off the pitch as well, trying to make sure I keep my body right, doing all the extras and training, things like that to make sure I’m on my best level.
Eventually I want to perform at the highest level that I can. Whether that’s playing Champions League, playing European competitions with Fulham, however I get there, I want to make sure I get there”, Robinson added.
