Liverpool appear to be on the cusp of completing a deal to sign Alexis Mac Allister, although one Reds-supporting broadcaster isn’t getting overly enthused by the thought of the Brighton midfielder coming to Anfield. However, Ade Oladipo has seemingly suggested that Mac Allister would be nothing more than a consolation prize after the lengthy and unsuccessful pursuit of the Borussia Dortmund star, while also naming one Premier League midfielder he’d rather see at Liverpool. He told “I mean, I’ve seen Arsenal are going [for] Declan Rice. Why aren’t we competing with Arsenal for Declan Rice? “We were [trying to sign] Jude Bellingham for five months and now you’re telling me Mac Allister. And I’m supposed to get excited about Mac Allister when we were [after] Jude Bellingham for five months.” It’s obviously a blow that Liverpool’s long-time pursuit of the 19-year-old came to nothing, but signing a World Cup winner and proven Premier League operator in Mac Allister would go a long way towards making up for it.
