Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister has issued an emotional goodbye to supporters and teammates as he prepares for a high-profile transfer to Real Madrid. The Argentine midfielder is set to be a central part of new Madrid manager Xabi Alonso’s tactical plans.
As reported by MARCA, Alonso has identified Mac Allister as a priority signing, praising his technical skill, vision, and tactical awareness. Real Madrid are believed to be offering a substantial package — potentially involving young talent Arda Güler — to secure the 25-year-old, despite his current contract with Liverpool running until 2028 and a €90 million valuation on Transfermarkt.
In a message shared via social media, Mac Allister expressed gratitude:
“Liverpool gave me so much in such a short period — belief, passion, and unforgettable moments. But football is about timing, and I feel ready for a new challenge. I’m deeply thankful to the fans, teammates, and staff. Anfield will always be a part of me.”
Mac Allister joined Liverpool in 2023 and quickly became a key figure, playing a vital role in the club’s Premier League title win during Arne Slot’s debut season as manager. His exit closes a brief but influential chapter at Anfield.
Real Madrid view him as a long-term midfield solution, ideally suited to Alonso’s system. The Spaniard values Mac Allister’s adaptability and ability to control the tempo — traits that are essential as Madrid rebuilds its midfield core.
With the official announcement imminent, Mac Allister’s switch to Madrid could become one of the most impactful midfield transfers of the summer
