Fulham star who 'performs at elite level' tipped for Chelsea or Liverpool transfer

Fulham full-back Antonee Robinson could be a great addition to either Chelsea or Liverpool, according to former England international Owen Hargreaves.

Robinson has been excelling at Craven Cottage this season. He helped Fulham win 3-0 against Tottenham last Sunday by making his sixth assist of the season. The 26-year-old, who also plays for the United States national team, has been linked with both Liverpool and Chelsea as the summer transfer window approaches.

Hargreaves thinks that Robinson is showing he can play at an 'elite level'. He told Premier League Productions: «To get a full-back that can cover that much distance is tough. He is almost covering the whole left-hand side on his own. But if you can get these numbers, if you can get six assists by March, you put yourself in an elite category. He is performing at an elite level.

»He is always fit and always plays. I think getting assists, he will be absolutely delighted with the numbers."

When asked if Robinson could play for a top-four Premier League club, Hargreaves said: «I think he could, yeah. I think he has the capacity and capability. He is still relatively a young player. If he is adding those types of numbers in a team that isn't the most attacking, then it makes you think he could step up one more level. I think he is in a good place at Fulham right now, performing very well.»

Ex-Everton player Leon Osman shared: «He came through the youth set-up at Everton, where he did his development when I was there. I wouldn't have believed you if you'd said he would develop into this player, physically he's matured so much which has given him an incredible ability on the pitch. It's really pleasing to see where he's managed to go.»
