Have Liverpool Triggered Alexis Mac Allister Brighton Release Clause?
Anfield’s Fresh Addition: Alexis Mac Allister
Liverpool FC have their sights firmly set on a new summer catch according to Football Insider. The Reds have apparently agreed to pay the release clause of Brighton’s standout performer, Alexis Mac Allister. The World Cup winner is said to be on the verge of a move, with the transfer fee rumoured to be in the vicinity of £55-60 million.
The 24-year-old Argentine maestro is primed to sign a contract that will triple his current wage, taking him beyond the £150,000-a-week mark. The lucrative terms of the agreement indicate Liverpool’s profound conviction in his ability.
After an impactful four-year tenure with the Seagulls, Mac Allister is ready to bid adieu to Brighton. Following a 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa, Mac Allister and his midfield comrade Moises Caicedo parted ways with the club, as confirmed by Brighton’s boss Roberto De Zerbi.
Alexis Mac Allister’s departure marks the end of a successful era at the Amex Stadium, during which he played a pivotal role in Brighton’s historic journey to their first European qualification. Mac Allister’s record for the 2022-23 season bears testament to his contributions: 12 goals and three assists across 40 matches, underpinning his consistent performance.
Moreover, his contribution in Argentina’s victorious World Cup campaign, where he scored a goal and provided an assist, further cements his footballing prowess.
The Reds’ Midfield Makeover
The imminent arrival of Alexis Mac Allister on Merseyside represents more than a solitary signing; it heralds the beginning of a significant restructuring within Liverpool’s ranks. The club appear eager to re-establish their Premier League supremacy by shaking up their midfield options.
This summer will witness the departure of familiar faces like Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and James Milner. Additionally, Arthur Melo is set to return to Juventus after a less than stellar loan stint at Liverpool.
The Reds are banking on Mac Allister’s Argentine zest and proven track record to steer their campaign back to the zenith of English football. All eyes will be on Anfield as the curtain rises on a new era with Alexis Mac Allister poised to lead the charge.
