Liverpool’s Potential £22.5m Instant Gain Upon Alexis Mac Allister’s Transfer from Brighton

In a significant development, Liverpool is nearing the completion of a deal to secure Brighton midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, and it already appears to be an astute move by the Reds.

The 24-year-old Argentinean is reported to have agreed to terms on a five-year contract with Liverpool, which would see him earn approximately £150,000 per week at Anfield.

Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that Mac Allister is scheduled to undergo a medical examination with Liverpool on Tuesday.

“Today’s plan includes progressing with the formalities of the contract, completing the medical examination, and signing the contract on Wednesday,” Romano tweeted.

“The agreement extends until June 2028. Alexis is eager to finalize the move before joining the Argentina national team.”

Once the medical evaluation is successfully concluded, Liverpool is anticipated to activate a release clause in Mac Allister’s contract at the Amex Stadium.

What will Liverpool pay for Mac Allister? Though there have been conflicting reports regarding the transfer fee, several sources suggest that Liverpool could spend as little as £45m to secure the services of the World Cup winner.

Meanwhile, Romano has verified that Liverpool will pay significantly less than the £60m fee mentioned in other reports.

If the Reds manage to sign Mac Allister for approximately £45m, they will immediately generate a profit on the player.

According to the esteemed CIES Football Observatory, Mac Allister’s actual transfer value stands at around €78.4m (£67.5m).

If their assessment holds true, Liverpool would effectively save £22.5m on the acquisition of this talented midfielder.

Other potential signings for Liverpool Following a disappointing season without any silverware or a top-four finish in the Premier League, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is eager to bolster his midfield options by adding several new players.

The Merseyside club has been linked with various midfield targets, such as Khephren Thuram from Nice and Manu Kone from Borussia Monchengladbach.

Furthermore, Liverpool may explore the possibility of signing a left-sided centre-back during the summer transfer window. Names like Evan Ndicka from Eintracht Frankfurt, Micky van de Ven from Wolfsburg, and Levi Colwill, who spent the season on loan at Brighton from Chelsea, have been associated with the Reds.
