Liverpool’s midfield plans could be heading for a major change, with Alexis Mac Allister’s future at Anfield increasingly becoming a talking point.
According to recent reports, Liverpool have identified Maximo Perrone as one of the potential candidates to eventually replace the Argentine midfielder. Perrone, 23, has impressed during his development in Italy and is viewed as a player capable of filling a similar midfield role.
Perrone is not the only name on Liverpool’s radar. Aurélien Tchouaméni, Yasin Ayari and James Garner have also been identified as possible alternatives in a reported four-man shortlist.
The speculation comes after Mac Allister admitted that he was “very, very sad” that Liverpool had not offered him a new contract. His current deal runs until 2028, but the lack of progress has raised questions about his long-term future.
For now, there is no confirmation that Liverpool have decided to sell Mac Allister. The reports suggest the club is simply preparing for different scenarios while monitoring the midfield market.
Mac Allister remains an important player for Liverpool, but the possibility of a future change has certainly given supporters something to debate.
Would you want Liverpool to let Mac Allister leave if the right replacement is found?
