Alexis Mac Allister could leave Liverpool in summer transfer window
Argentina midfielder Alexis Mac Allister could leave Liverpool this summer if the club receives a suitable offer, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
The Merseyside club are currently undergoing a period of wholesale transition following the appointment of manager Andoni Iraola.
The Spaniard replaced Arne Slot in the Anfield dugout after guiding Bournemouth to Europa League qualification last season.
Several prominent figures are already confirmed to be departing the 2024-25 Premier League champions.
Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson and Ibrahima Konate will all leave the club following the expiration of their respective contracts.
Potential Midfield Changes
The 25-year-old South American endured an underwhelming domestic campaign and was frequently overshadowed by midfield partner Dominik Szoboszlai.
Romano claims the former Brighton playmaker is not guaranteed to depart, but his situation remains fluid as rival clubs monitor his availability.
“In case of good proposals for Liverpool, for the player, I will not exclude changes in midfield for Liverpool,” stated Romano.
The Italian journalist added that while an exit is not currently at an advanced stage, it remains a distinct possibility.
“It’s not guaranteed, it’s not close, it’s not advanced, but could be a topic.”
Wharton Targeted as Replacement
Should the World Cup winner depart, Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton has emerged as an ideal replacement.
The highly-rated England international missed out on Thomas Tuchel’s squad for the upcoming North American World Cup.
The Reds are also reportedly pursuing a deal for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande to bolster their attacking options.
Iraola faces a significant rebuilding task as he attempts to replace the core personalities who delivered recent domestic success.
