Brighton transfer news – Liverpool prioritise Alexis Mac Allister

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’d know that Alexis Mac Allister is due to leave Brighton this summer. Unfortunately, his representatives have made it very clear that they want the World Cup winner to move to a bigger club, with no room for negotiation whatsoever.

Liverpool is the most likely destination for Mac Allister. A report from Express today has claimed that “Alexis Mac Allister is the first name on Jurgen Klopp’s wish-list”. Time for De Zerbi and co to plan his replacement.

Thankfully for Brighton fans, the club will not just roll over and let themselves be bullied in the transfer window. With next season being a legitimate shot at a top four finish under Roberto De Zerbi, the manager wants to make sure the board is prepared to invest in his plan.

According to Sussex World, De Zerbi has claimed that if his side lose one or two big players (those big players likely to be Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo), then fans can expect to hear of a “big big player” signing to replace them.
