Liverpool step up move for Alexis Mac Allister

Liverpool are ready to step up their chase of Alexis Mac Allister, with the Merseysiders now confident of sealing a deal.

According to Fabrizio Romano via LFC Transfer Room, Liverpool are closing in on Alexis Mac Allister. The Reds are confident of sealing an agreement with Brighton for the 24-year-old midfield target, having reportedly discussed the project with the player’s camp.

Alexis Mac Allister could become a big story of the summer window. The Argentine World Cup winner’s stock has peaked since the winter tournament. Add his performances for Brighton over the last few seasons, and we have a solid talent in the Premier League. He has taken his game to another level under Roberto De Zerbi. But the Seagulls’ fans may not see him here next season.

There is heavy interest from Premier League sides in the 24-year-old midfielder. Manchester United and Liverpool were among those keen to sign him. But the Merseysiders may have taken the march over the Argentine.

After evaluating several targets, Liverpool identified Mac Allister as their summer priority. The midfielder reportedly likes the idea of playing under Jurgen Klopp. According to Fabrizio Romano, they have already discussed the project with the player’s camp.

Liverpool are willing to pay big, and there is a feeling there will be no problems with agreeing on a move with Brighton. Romano insisted they advance in negotiations, meaning the Reds are on course to seal an early move again.

Mac Allister’s profile is severely needed at Liverpool as they look to revamp their midfield positions. He could add the missing creativity in this team and even contribute with goals as he has done at Brighton.

From the looks of it, the move could conclude in the coming weeks. The curiosity will remain about how much Liverpool pays for the 24-year-old midfield target. He will become their alternative to Jude Bellingham, who Klopp was keen on. But his massive price tag took the Reds out of the equation.

Bellingham will likely join Real Madrid, as recent updates claimed a move was imminent. Signing Mac Allister will elevate the mood at Merseyside for missing out on the Dortmund teenager. Moreover, the Argentine will prove a hit at Anfield. But only time will tell how much better he might get here.
