Alexis Mac Allister father makes admission on Real Madrid interest

Carlos Mac Allister, father of Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, has addressed the ongoing speculation about his son's potential transfer to Real Madrid. Despite rumors circulating in Spanish media suggesting a move to Real Madrid could happen soon, Carlos firmly stated that Alexis is very happy at Liverpool and intends to stay, emphasizing respect for the club and the player's current contract running until 2028.

Mac Allister Sr. initially responded ambiguously to transfer rumors with a "time will tell" remark, but later clarified in an interview with WinWin that "there is nothing to comment on." He expressed optimism about Alexis winning the Premier League this season and noted that his son looks forward to a holiday he missed the previous year. He highlighted Alexis’s satisfaction with life in England, mentioning his good adaptation both on and off the pitch.

Real Madrid's interest is not surprising given Alexis Mac Allister's reputation as a top midfielder and a World Cup winner. However, Liverpool values him highly as part of manager Arne Slot's plans, making an immediate transfer unlikely. Additional reports indicate Liverpool might entertain a sale next summer for a large fee reportedly around €120 million, but the player’s father considers that premature and underlines Alexis’s commitment to the club for now.

The broader Liverpool squad faces notable changes, with other players linked to moves to Real Madrid and potential new midfield signings eyed to bolster the team alongside Mac Allister. Yet, for the immediate future, the midfielder's father expects him to remain at Anfield and continue contributing to Liverpool’s ambitions.
