Real Madrid eye Mac Allister as Liverpool set €70m price tag
Real Madrid are weighing a January bid for Alexis Mac Allister, but Liverpool reportedly want at least €70m. Here is what it means for Slot's midfield.
Real Madrid are considering a move for Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister in the January transfer window, but the La Liga giants would have to dig deep to land the Argentine.
Liverpool's €70m stance
Spanish media reports claim Liverpool have made it clear to Real Madrid that no offer below €70 million will even be considered for the Argentina international. The valuation sends a firm message: the Premier League club have no intention of letting one of their key players leave cheaply in the middle of the season.
A cornerstone of Slot's midfield
Since arriving at Anfield from Brighton, Mac Allister has become one of the most important pieces in Arne Slot's midfield. The 2022 World Cup winner is a regular starter, and losing him during the winter window would leave the Merseyside club with a significant gap to fill as they push through the campaign.
No formal talks between the two clubs have been confirmed so far, and it remains to be seen whether Real Madrid are prepared to meet Liverpool's demands for the midfielder.
