It should be one or the other.Speaking to The Redmen TV, Lynch suggested that while Liverpool may actually decide to sell them both, it is Jones who is virtually certain to go, with Mac Allister’s exit much more dependent on the kind of offers that may arrive for him.“My expectation is now that he will leave,” the reporter said on Jones. “I think Inter Milan are going to come back in, maybe interest from elsewhere as well.”Photo by Molly Darlington/Getty ImagesREAD MORE: Liverpool’s predicted XI vs Chelsea as Arne Slot weighs up Alexander Isak riskOn Mac Allister, Lynch claims that the picture is a little more murky, but confirmed that while he is more likely to stay than his midfield colleague, that does not mean the No.

10 will definitely be around next season.“My understanding is that Liverpool aren’t in contract talks with Mac Allister, no plans to extend,” he said. And as long as Liverpool go out and replace him with another player who could potentially push Mac Allister out of the regular starting XI, there is no harm in keeping the Argentine around instead.
