Liverpool has been handed a significant boost ahead of the new season with Alexis Mac Allister returning to full training.

The Reds midfielder, who has already made his feelings clear on a sensational transfer to Real Madrid, missed the Reds' final matches of the previous season against Brighton and Crystal Palace after Arne Slot disclosed that he had been playing with an injury for the latter part of the campaign and needed complete recovery.

However, it seemed the 26-year-old's problem was more serious than initially thought when he was absent from the Premier League team's opening preseason matches against Preston and AC Milan.

He said: "I read the rumors and the news reaches me, but the important thing is the present.

"No matter how much the club loves me, if I play poorly this weekend, they’ll lose interest.

"I’m fine at Liverpool, and I don’t have any need (to leave).

"I have a lot of respect for the club, and I don’t think it’s necessary to talk about other clubs."

Mac Allister, who is a World Cup winner with Argentina, joined Liverpool during the summer of 2023 after previously playing for Argentions Juniors, Boca Juniors, and Brighton.
