Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister has once again found himself in the transfer spotlight. The 26-year-old Argentine, currently a key figure in the Reds’ midfield, is reportedly on Real Madrid’s radar.Transfer insider Indy Kaila claims the Spanish giants are seriously interested, and Liverpool could be tempted to sell—but only if the price matches their valuation. While a January switch isn’t entirely off the table, a summer move appears far more likely. With Liverpool struggling at the start of this season, losing a pivotal player mid-campaign would be risky. Mac Allister, who has previously been described as “absolutely magnificent,” remains vital to their hopes of bouncing back.Valuation and Replacement StrategyLiverpool have already set a firm price for the World Cup-winning midfielder and are ready to negotiate if the terms are right. Simultaneously, the club has lined up plans for his potential departure, targeting a top-tier defensive midfielder to reinforce the squad.Currently, Liverpool’s midfield boasts talents like Ryan Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai. Yet, what the team lacks is a specialist capable of shielding the back four and breaking up opposition attacks. Gravenberch has been asked to fill that defensive role, but the Dutch international thrives when playing further up the pitch. Deploying him deeper diminishes his attacking strengths, making the search for a true midfield enforcer a priority.A New Challenge Looms?Mac Allister has consistently impressed in the Premier League, first at Brighton and now with Liverpool. Having already tasted league glory, the Argentine might be tempted by a fresh challenge abroad. Real Madrid, widely regarded as one of the world’s most prestigious clubs, could offer the perfect stage for him to test his abilities in La Liga.Whether Liverpool can retain their star until summer—or if Madrid’s allure proves irresistible—remains to be seen.
