Scoring a rocket against Sheffield United on Thursday night to unlock the game and lead Liverpool to a valuable three points, Alexis Mac Allister is making headlines around the world.
The midfielder is being hailed by two separate newspapers, starting with Olé, who explain the Reds star is in ‘Modo Mundial’.
The goal against the Blades was his fifth in his last seven games for Liverpool, and nearly came close to scoring a sixth a few minutes after nearly breaking the Bramall Lane net.
It’s explained that ‘everything revolves around him’ in Jürgen Klopp’s plans, and they throw a lot of statistics to back this up, such as him being first in passes completed, second in recoveries and second in duels won.
This praise continues over at La Nación, going over how ‘stellar’ the Argentine has been of late, almost erasing completely the memory of Jordan Henderson, now at Ajax after a failed spell in Saudi Arabia.
After all, this directly impacts Argentina’s national team, who will be heading into Copa America this summer, and have their eyes already set on trying to retain the World Cup they won in 2022.
First, though, it’s all about winning the league with Liverpool in Mac Allister’s head, and everything is in the Anfield side’s hands.
