Liverpool have been handed a significant boost ahead of the new season after Alexis Mac Allister’s father publicly dismissed speculation linking the midfielder with a summer departure.
Carlos Mac Allister spoke directly to address the growing transfer chatter that had been circulating across Europe in recent weeks.
His comments serve as a firm and definitive response to clubs who had reportedly been monitoring the Argentine international’s availability this summer.
Carlos Mac Allister told WinWinAllSports, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano: “Alexis will stay at Liverpool, and we have not discussed any possibility of him leaving the club this summer.”
The statement leaves no room for interpretation and effectively closes the door on any potential move during the current transfer window.
Alexis Mac Allister had been among the most heavily discussed names in transfer columns across European football over recent weeks.
Manchester City were reported to be the latest club to register serious interest, with talkSPORT claiming the Premier League side had added Mac Allister to their shortlist as a potential replacement for Rodri.
Chelsea were also credited with close attention toward the situation, with reports suggesting Xabi Alonso was waiting for a green light from the player before making a formal move.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, have maintained a long-standing interest in the 27-year-old, with the European champions said to have been tracking him since at least last summer.
The Argentina World Cup winner had attracted attention from some of the biggest clubs on the continent, making the public statement from his father all the more significant for Liverpool.
Mac Allister has already returned to pre-season training at the AXA Training Centre following an extended summer break, with his focus fully on the upcoming campaign.
His presence in the Liverpool midfield will be crucial as the club prepares for what promises to be a highly competitive season across all competitions.
With Carlos Mac Allister firmly shutting down any speculation, Liverpool can now plan with full confidence that one of their most important players will not be leaving Anfield this summer.
