Liverpool transfer rumours: Alexis Mac Allister stolen; Manuel Ugarte offers “loan”; player plus cash deal
Liverpool are preparing several major moves in the summer transfer market as they look to bounce back from a disappointing season.
A deal for Brighton’s Alexis Mac Allister would progress with midfield, a key area targeted by Jurgen Klopp – although Jude Bellingham has been deemed too expensive.

Alexis MacAllister
Liverpool are close to agreeing a deal to sign Mac Allister with his father and agent reportedly booking his flight to England next week to ratify the switch.
argentina Sports Tyc detail the Reds’ plans to sign the midfielder until 2028 after a stellar season with club and country.
All that remains is to seal a transfer fee with Brighton, which reports say could topple £70million.

A midfield signing may not be enough for Klopp amid Liverpool’s links with Uruguay international Ugarte.
Sporting CP are said to have little hope of keeping the 22-year-old given his £52million release clause is attracting serious attention.
Le Parisien reports that Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea are preparing to launch an offer, with Liverpool described as ‘ready’ to fulfill the clause themselves.

Chelsea are also vying with Liverpool for the talent of Southampton Lavia, who the Reds will get to see up close on Sunday when they travel to St Mary’s for the final game of the season.
According to Football Transfers, a player-plus-cash deal could be offered by the Anfield outfit to knock off Lavia’s rumored £50m price tag.
Specifically, young midfielder Tyler Morton is suspended at Southampton after a solid loan spell at Blackburn.
