Liverpool might ‘reluctantly cash in on’ Mac Allister



“Liverpool, right now, are looking to strengthen rather than weaken the squad, but if they are needing to sell players, Mac Allister could be one of those that could be sacrificed.”

Mac Allister still has plenty to offer at Liverpool

Like many of his teammates at Anfield, the 27-year-old endured a drastic decline in form in the 2025/26 campaign compared to the previous season, and his current market valuation is among the highest of any Liverpool player according to Transfermarkt.

If FSG were to receive any signals that he might be prepared to leave this summer, that could potentially make the hierarchy more amenable to offers from elsewhere for the Reds’ fifth most-used player of last term (Transfermarkt).

However, one underwhelming campaign doesn’t change the truth that Mac Allister is a top-class midfielder who’s one of the world’s best players in his position when he’s operating at his highest level, and he has it in him to come up with clutch moments for his team.

It was his goal which secured a memorable win over Real Madrid last November, and he also netted the stoppage-time winner at Nottingham Forest in February, a crucial result in ultimately qualifying us for the Champions League.

Hopefully Liverpool won’t feel obligated to sell the Argentine this summer and he can bounce back to his best levels under Andoni Iraola next term.
