Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister has recently found himself at the center of transfer speculation, with reports suggesting that Real Madrid are keeping close tabs on the Argentine star. However, the 26-year-old has now broken his silence and his message is crystal clear: he’s staying put at Anfield.
Mac Allister has been one of the standout performers under Arne Slot this season, contributing six goals and five assists in all competitions. His ability to step up in high-pressure moments has earned him praise from fans and pundits alike, and it’s no surprise that Europe’s elite clubs have taken notice.
But in a recent interview with TyC Sports journalist Gastón Edul, the World Cup winner calmly dismissed the speculation, stating that his focus is solely on performing for Liverpool.
“I see the news and rumors, but what really matters is the present. Even if a club admires me, one bad game and that interest can disappear,” said Mac Allister.
“I’m happy at Liverpool. I feel no need to move. I respect this club a lot, and there’s no point in discussing other teams right now.”
Since joining from Brighton, Mac Allister has seamlessly adapted to life on Merseyside, quickly becoming a key figure in the Reds’ midfield rebuild. His composure, intelligence, and leadership have made him an essential part of Slot’s project.
Unlike fellow teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has also been linked with Real Madrid, Mac Allister has made it clear that Anfield is where he wants to be.
While Liverpool continue to explore potential midfield reinforcements—such as rumored interest in Dutch star Xavi Simons—the commitment of players like Mac Allister provides a solid foundation for the club’s future.
For now, Reds fans can breathe easy. Their Argentine maestro isn’t going anywhere.
