Alexis MacAllister’s father has already confirmed that the Brighton star will join Manchester City this summer, amid reports that Manchester City has entered the race to sign the Liverpool target
This season, City have proven to be Europe’s most dominant team. Pep Guardiola’s men won their fifth Premier League title in six years on Saturday, and they will compete in FA Cup and Champions League finals in the coming weeks.
Nonetheless, the club’s focus remains on the summer transfer window. Indeed, with the expected departures of midfield trio lkay Gündoan, Bernardo Silva, and Kalvin Phillips in the off-season, City are said to be interested in Brighton star Mac Allister.
According to the Mirror, City will try to persuade Mac Allister to join them over Premier League rivals Liverpool.
Personal terms had been agreed between Mac Allister and the Reds, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.
However, the Brighton star is said to want to play in the Champions League next season, which Liverpool is unlikely to offer.
Mac Allister will be leaving this summer.
Mac Allister will almost certainly leave Brighton this summer, whether to City, Liverpool, or another club.
It’s unclear which club will lure the 24-year-old away from the Amex, but Mac Allister’s father Carlos has hinted that he’ll be leaving the south coast side.
He told Puro Boca last month, “Normally, the next pass book will find him playing in another institution, we don’t know which, the talks, in general, have just begun, but most likely next July he will already be playing in another team.”
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi appeared to have accepted the loss of Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo earlier this month.
After the Seagulls’ 3-0 win over Arsenal, De Zerbi stated, “For sure, we will lose some players, maybe Caicedo and Mac Allister.”
De Zerbi’s admission about departures is likely to have taken some of the luster off Brighton’s impressive win at the Emirates.
