AS Roma have confirmed that talks are underway for Kostas Tsimikas to cut his loan spell short and return to Liverpool. The talks to bring him back began after Tottenham made a move to sign Andy Robertson. While initial reports suggested Tsimikas' recall was a contingency plan for Robertson's potential departure, reports now suggest that Liverpool have pulled the plug on selling the Scotsman to their Premier League rivals. However, despite retaining Robertson, the decision to bring the world-class defender back to Merseyside remains unchanged.

Things don't appear any better for Kostas Tsimikas, who is said to be frustrating loan club Roma, with the Italian giants suggesting they are only keeping him on board to make up the numbers. The summer arrival of Kerkez meant one of Tsimikas or Robertson was likely to depart, and the Greek international ultimately left in search of regular minutes, joining Roma on loan.
