Mac Allister sends a hint to Real Madrid with Trent as the main character

The unexpected praise that Trent Alexander-Arnold has received from Alexis Mac Allister

After Luka Modric's departure, Real Madrid lost strength in its midfield for this season. While the squad has many high-quality players, the club showed interest in signing Mac Allister. Although the deal is complicated, the player himself has sent a hint to the club by proclaiming Trent as the best passer.

Having shared a locker room for 2 seasons at Liverpool, Mac Allister has hinted that he misses Trent. While he hasn't spoken about his future, this has alerted Real Madrid regarding a future transfer. According to Defensa Central, Real Madrid is willing to try to sign Mac Allister.

However, the main problem with this possible deal is, obviously, Liverpool. After Trent's departure, the club isn't interested in losing another one of its stars. In addition, given Real Madrid's interest in Ibrahima Konaté as well, Liverpool could be reluctant to allow 2 of its players to leave.

A top-level reinforcement

Signed by Liverpool in 2023 from Brighton, Alexis Mac Allister is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League. Essential for the club's successes as well as those of the Argentine national team, Mac Allister is a unique midfielder. In addition to his vision of the game, the Argentine has an elegant touch on the ball.

His ability to control the pace of matches is also one of his most outstanding qualities. At 26 years old, Mac Allister still has a more than ideal age to keep improving his performance. Real Madrid has taken all this into account to be more than clear about signing him.

His recent words about Trent have left the door open to a possible departure from Liverpool. Even so, Mac Allister's current value is €100 million (100 million euros) according to Transfermarkt. However, given his contract until 2028 and his importance at Liverpool, his transfer value could exceed €100 million (100 million euros).

Aware of this, Real Madrid probably won't make an offer for Mac Allister this summer. With the season already underway, the Argentine could arrive next summer. A perfect opportunity for his value to be more affordable than the €100 million (100 million euros) that Liverpool may demand.
