Career edit
Celtic edit
Raised in Lenzie and a product of the club's youth system,[2][3] Robertson made his senior debut aged 18 in a 2019–20 UEFA Europa League group stage fixture against CFR Cluj on 12 December 2019; with Celtic's final position at the head of the table already confirmed, a below-strength team lost 2–0.[4] He had already featured for Celtic's under-21 team in the 2018–19 and 2019–20 editions of the Scottish Challenge Cup, scoring in a defeat to Falkirk,[2][5] and in July 2019, a few days before he turned 18, signed a contract running until summer 2021.[6]
Loan spells edit
In September 2020, he joined Gillingham on a season-long loan.[7] He made his debut for the club coming on as a substitute in a 2-0 defeat to Hull City. After making 15 league appearances for the Gills, Robertson was recalled by Celtic on 11 January 2021.[8]
