Robertson impressed for the Tigers last season despite their relegation, making 33 appearances in the Premier League.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has made the signing of a left-back a priority after James Milner was required to play in the position for much of last season.

The potential arrival of Robertson could spell the end for Spaniard Alberto Moreno, who struggled to break into the team last season following some shaky defensive performances.

Robertson, 23, began his career with Queen's Park in Scotland, before moving on to Dundee United and joining Hull in 2004.

If a deal is completed, he will become Liverpool's third signing of the summer following the arrivals of Mohamed Salah from Roma and Dominic Solanke from Chelsea.

Robertson has earned 15 caps for the Scotland national team, scoring one goal against England at Celtic Park under manager Gordan Strachan.
