Image Credits: Imago ImagesAlexis Mac Allister’s situation at Liverpool is beginning to edge towards a decision point.The Argentine joined from Brighton in 2023 on a five‑year contract that runs until the summer of 2028, meaning he is approaching the final two years of his current terms and, in theory, the stage at which Liverpool would usually look to either renew or cash in on a high‑value asset.That question becomes more pointed given the dip in form he has experienced this season.After playing a central role in last year’s title‑winning campaign, Mac Allister’s performances in 2025/26 have come under scrutiny, with a notable drop‑off in his defensive numbers, chance creation and overall influence in games.Now Paul Joyce of the Times, while discussing whether Arne Slot’s side need major reinforcements in the summer, has revealed that talks have not taken place with Alexis Mac Allister over a new deal:“Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson are already departing when their contracts expire.”“Similarly, Ibrahima Konate’s confidence that he is close to signing a new contract has not yet resulted in him putting pen to paper, while Curtis Jones has a year left on his deal.

Talks have not taken place with Alexis Mac Allister on a new contract.”“Last summer’s £450million reconfiguration did not address some gaps in the squad and Liverpool must go into next season with a better balanced group.Real Madrid have long been monitoring the situation, and Carlo Ancelotti was keen on him when he made the move from Brighton to Liverpool in 2023.With other European clubs also keeping tabs, this summer represents the club’s best and perhaps last chance to recoup a meaningful fee. Letting him drift into the final year of his deal would be a familiar and costly mistake.The lack of renewal talks only adds a little more intrigue to what could become one of the next major decisions of Liverpool’s midfield direction.
