Fichajes reports that Real Madrid have been massive admirers of Liverpool‘s midfield stalwart, Alexis Mac Allister, and are interested in signing the Argentine in the upcoming transfer window. The same report states that Arne Slot’s side will demand a huge €100 million to sell their talisman to Los Blancos.
Alexis Mac Allister has been sensational for Liverpool
If the player leaves Anfield, it will be a massive dent to their team and their midfield resources. However, the big question is whether Los Blancos are willing to match the fee demanded by the Anfield side. They want to build a midfield for the future, and the 26-year-old is seen as the missing link in that region.
Real Madrid have made some star signings in the recent transfer windows, and they do have money to do more. They need a replacement for their legendary midfielder Luka Modric, and Mac Allister might be just that profile who can replace him at the heart of the midfield.
He is excellent at controlling the game’s tempo, blending defensive solidity with offensive contributions. The Argentine’s passing range, vision, and ability to read the game make him invaluable. Moreover, his composure on the ball adds to his midfield mastery.
The Argentine could decide to move to Santiago Bernabeu if he gets a good wage. Players from South America favour playing in Spain, and Real Madrid are definitely the tip of the iceberg. They are the biggest club in the world and definitely a lucrative place for any ambitious player.
The Reds are currently at the top of the Premier League standings. If Slot’s side wins the title at the end of the season, Mac Alister might decide to leave for Los Blancos to get a new challenge at an illustrious club. He has scored three goals and provided two assists in the 25 games that he has played across competitions so far this season.
Can Real Madrid sign him?
The upcoming period will reveal how the two clubs negotiate and if the player does decide to leave for Spain. However, one thing is certain: Florentino Perez has the money to pay €100 million to Liverpool to sign the Argentine maestro, who is also a World Cup winner.
Coming to Liverpool, they would not want to lose such a world-class player from their squad and do their all to retain him at their disposal. It will be interesting to see what happens to Mac Allister in the transfer window.
