Manchester City monitor Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister

Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister during the current summer transfer window.

Manchester City are monitoring the availability of Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister this summer. The Mancunian club is showing interest in the Argentine international as they look to bolster their midfield options during this transfer period.

The 27-year-old midfielder recorded two goals and four assists in 37 league appearances for Liverpool last season. While he faced challenges with consistency during that campaign, he concluded the season with a series of influential performances in the center of the pitch.

Mac Allister is a versatile player capable of operating as a box-to-box midfielder, a holding midfielder, or in the number ten role. His technical profile includes strong tackling abilities to regain possession, effective passing, and the ability to score from long range. He also possesses the vision required to create scoring opportunities for attackers.

As one of the more experienced central midfielders currently playing in the Premier League, Mac Allister is viewed as a player who would require little time to adapt to a new environment. His arrival could provide significant depth to the midfield department under Enzo Maresca.

However, securing the player may prove difficult for Manchester City. The Argentina international is currently under contract at Liverpool until the summer of 2028, which may prevent the Mancunian side from acquiring him at a reduced price this year.
