Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs on alert with target looking to leave current club

Liverpool will have to overcome a three-goal deficit if they are to progress past Real Madrid and into the last eight of the Champions League on Wednesday. 

Jurgen Klopp’s side found themselves 2-0 up within 15 minutes of the first leg at Anfield three weeks ago, before the reigning European champions ran riot and left Liverpool on the verge of exiting the competition at the last 16 stage.

Since then The Reds have endured mix results, having beaten Manchester United 7-0 before being beaten 1-0 by lowly Bournemouth on Saturday.

This summer Klopp will likely look to overhaul his misfiring squad, with several of his current stars set to depart at the end of the current season.

James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are all set to be out of contract when the current season finishes and the trio look increasingly likely to leave Anfield.

With that in mind, Liverpool will likely be in the market for at least one new midfielder this summer and it appears that one of their targets is pushing for a move.

Mac Allister is reportedly keen to leave Brighton this summer

As per 90min, Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has decided he is ready to leave The Seagulls this summer.

The 24-year-old has been in fine form for Brighton over the past 18 months and played an important role for his nation as Argentina lifted the World Cup in Qatar last year.

Mac Allister’s current contract at The Amex is due to expire in the summer of 2025, but Brighton look likely to receive significant interest in the midfielder this summer.

Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are all said to have shown an interest in the player, who joined Brighton back in 2019.

Chelsea face losing N’Golo Kante when his current contract expires at the end of the season and could therefore be in the market for another central midfielder, while Tottenham Hotspur will look to bolster their squad ahead of next term.

Since then, the Argentinian has made more than 90 appearances for The Seagulls, but his impressive performances haven’t gone unnoticed and his current club may now face a battle to keep hold of the player.
