Journalist Names Liverpool As “One Of” The Clubs Pursuing 70M Rated World Cup Winner
Liverpool are “one of” the teams interested in signing Brighton midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, according to Relevo journalist Matteo Moretto.
A number of clubs weighed up moves for the World Cup winner in January, but Moretto says there have been more serious enquiries since the transfer window closed, with the Reds among the suitors:
El plan es que Mac Allister abandone el Brighton en verano, para dar un paso adelante.
Varios clubes preguntaron en enero, sin llegar a profundizar, pero en las últimas semanas algunos han vuelto a sondear la posible compra del jugador.
El Liverpool es uno de ellos. @relevo

Chelsea and Arsenal have also been credited with an interest in Mac Allister, and there are likely to be plenty of other teams on the continent keeping tabs on him.
However, the Argentinian international’s price tag may well reduce the number of potential destinations, with Brighton reportedly demanding as much as £70m.
Unlike his teammate Moises Caicedo, Mac Allister has been pretty relaxed about when he leaves the Amex Stadium, stating in an interview back in January that he won’t force through a transfer. A move this summer does, though, look increasingly likely, with Liverpool currently among the favourites to secure his services.
