Who is Andy Robertson?
Early life and schooling
Andy Robertson was born in Glasgow, United Kingdom, on March 11, 1994. He grew up with his parents, Brian and Pauline, and an elder brother named Stephen. His grandmother was born in Glenfarne, giving him Irish descent.

Club career beginnings
Andy Robertson started his youth career playing for Giffnock Soccer Centre and later joined the youth setup at Celtic. At age fifteen, Celtic released him because he was considered too small. Following this setback, he joined Queen's Park in Glasgow's South side.
Manager Gardner Speirs called him up to the Queen's Park first team for the 2012 to 2013 season. He made his senior debut on July 28, 2012, in a Scottish Challenge Cup match against Berwick Rangers. Because Queen's Park was an amateur club at the time, players were only paid expenses, leading Andy to work various part-time jobs including ticket booking and retail.
