Alexis Mac Allister is reportedly “one step away” from joining Liverpool, according to Argentine journalist Germán Garca Grova. Talks on the deal’s specifics are expected to take place this week.
The 24-year-old’s agent and father Carlos will visit England to “go over the last details” of a deal to bring the World Cup winner to Anfield, the journalist tweeted.
Earlier in the day, Football Insider had reported that Mac Allister had reached an agreement to join the Reds this summer, with a fee of almost £60 million about to be finalized.
It comes after the midfielder teared up while acknowledging supporters following Brighton‘s final game of the season, prompting many to conclude that his departure from the AMEX is imminent.
If reports are to be believed, the deal could be announced in early June as Liverpool plan a summer rebuild of the midfield to help the side challenge again next season
