Real Madrid target Alexis Mac Allister as Mourinho pushes for Liverpool star – report Real Madrid are considering a move for Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, with Jose Mourinho among the strongest advocates of signing the Argentina international. Indeed, according to Sky Germany , the 27-year-old features prominently on the Spanish club’s list of transfer targets. However, Liverpool’s reluctance to lose an influential player and the financial demands involved could complicate Real Madrid’s pursuit.

At 27, Mac Allister would also bring considerable experience at the highest level. Rather than being a signing purely for the future, he could potentially assume a leadership role within the squad soon after arriving at the Santiago Bernabéu. Liverpool contract presents a major obstacle for Real Madrid Any potential deal would be difficult to complete. Mac Allister remains under contract with Liverpool until 2028 and is regarded as one of the English club’s most influential players. According to Sky Germany, Real Madrid face two major obstacles in their pursuit: Liverpool’s high financial demands and the club’s resistance to losing the midfielder.

In case there is no agreement over an extension, Liverpool would seek a significant fee for a player who they consider an integral part of the team. For Real Madrid, Mac Allister’s physicality, technical quality and experience could make him a valuable addition. Coupled with his contract situation, he can be an attractive target , although much will depend on how whether Liverpool decide to renew his contract or not.
