Alexis Mac Allister's Father Drops a Bombshell About Real Madrid: 'For Now...'

The  midfield of Real Madrid is going through a period of transition that will mark the club's immediate future. The recent retirement of Toni Kroos has left a considerable void in playmaking and distribution, a gap complemented by the uncertainty about Luka Modric's continuity. The genius from Zadar, at 39 years old, could leave the team this very summer.

In this context, the white sports management is carefully analyzing the market in search of alternatives to strengthen this important line of the first team. Juni Calafat's scouts are closely following two profiles: a pure organizing pivot, capable of directly replacing Kroos, or an offensive midfielder with talent and ability to reach the opponent's area.

Meanwhile, one of the names that has started to gain traction lately is Alexis Mac Allister, current Liverpool player. The words of his father, Carlos Mac Allister, about his sporting future are quite striking: "for now, I don't think he'll leave Liverpool" because the footballer "is very happy where he is. He lives in Manchester, and on his same block are Robertson, Gómez, and four blocks away is Lisandro Martínez".

According to his father, "Alexis speaks English well, understands the rules of the game, and talks to people. I think it has been the best thing that has happened to him and that's why the adaptation was easier", he concluded on "Picado TV" about the possible departure of the '10' red to LaLiga. The reality, however, is that the Argentine midfielder has expressed on several occasions his desire to wear the jersey of a Spanish club.

Nothing Is Defined

The current world champion with Argentina is a consolidated figure in the Premier League and is linked to the English team until mid-2028. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is around 90 million euros: that high figure is one of the major obstacles that the white leaders consider regarding his hypothetical signing.

So far, the link between Mac Allister and Real Madrid hasn't translated into official moves, although the Argentine footballer would fit into a midfield in need of signings. His vision of the game, passing accuracy, and ability to reach the area make him an ideal candidate to take on great responsibilities, complementing players like Bellingham, Camavinga, or Tchouaméni.

From the Madrid sports management, Mac Allister's name is just one among a long list of possible targets. Players like Martín Zubimendi or Florian Wirtz also appear as solid alternatives, each with their own virtues. The Liverpool midfielder would, in this sense, be a signing to bring similar virtues to those offered by Toni Kroos in the first team's engine room.

The final decision will depend on several factors, although the economic conditions of Alexis Mac Allister's signing are especially unfavorable. Be that as it may, the Argentine midfielder meets almost all the demands made by the renewed Madrid policy of signings.
