Liverpool’s new left-back Kostas Tsimikas is a similar sort of player to current incumbent Andy Robertson, according to former Reds defender Pedro Chirivella.
Tsimikas, 24, became Liverpool’s first signing of the summer on Monday as he completed a £11.75m ($15m) move from Olympiacos.
Chirivella left Merseyside for Nantes earlier in the window but he will no doubt have been in contact with Tsimikas after the pair became close friends while on loan at Dutch side Willem II in 2017-18.

The new man won’t be expecting to slide straight into Jurgen Klopp’s starting XI but will provide welcome competition and a rotation option for Robertson – and Chirivella thinks the pair have plenty in common.
