Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister has been linked with a move to Real Madrid in the summer window.
Last Monday, Marca journalist José Félix Díaz stated the 26-year-old is a target for Real Madrid.
A day later, Díaz said the Liverpool star is ahead of Real Sociedad’s Martín Zubimendi in Real Madrid’s list.
TyC Sports journalist Gastón Edul had a chat with the Argentina international and asked him about the recent reports of the La Liga side’s interest. Mac Allister is aware of these links and doesn’t want to get distracted.
“I read the rumours and the news reaches me, but the important thing is the present. No matter how much the club loves me, if I play poorly this weekend, they’ll lose interest,” he said.
Earlier this month, the World Cup winner’s father, Carlos, stated he won’t leave the Reds anytime soon. The player now insists he’s happy at Anfield, where he has a contract until 2028.
“I’m fine at Liverpool and I don’t have any need. So, I have a lot of respect for the club, and I don’t think it’s necessary to talk about other clubs,” Mac Allister explained.
The South American midfielder has also talked about his day-to-day life in England.
“I’m a little far away, so some fans greet you with respect, but in the city, they are more passionate. The club is like a family. One phrase sums it all up: You’ll never walk alone,” he added.
Mac Allister has been a regular for Liverpool since joining them from Brighton & Hove Albion in June 2023. He’s on the verge of winning his first title with the Merseyside club this season.
Arsenal, currently in second spot, face Crystal Palace later today and a defeat against the Eagles will see Liverpool mathematically clinch the title.
