Argentine midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, who joined Liverpool from Brighton last summer, has been the best addition to the club this season.
In the first half of the season, he fulfilled the role of a defensive midfielder who was short on numbers, and in the second half, when Japan midfielder Wataru Endo was established, he dominated the midfield as an inside half.
The 25-year-old midfielder, who also made his presence felt in attack with a powerful mid-range shot, reportedly attracted interest from Real Madrid, who were looking to replace Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.
With a number of young midfielders in the squad, including Jude Bellingham, the news is unlikely to be true, but it must have caught the player’s eye.
For South American players only, Spanish clubs are special and in the past Luis Suárez and Philippe Coutinho have had their hopes fulfilled.
However, the former Brighton midfielder is not looking at going to Madrid at the moment and has stated that he is happy at Liverpool.
“I’m not talking about assumptions, I’m very happy with Liverpool,”
“I think it was a good season individually, then we had some objectives that we couldn’t meet, but even so I think it was a very good season.”

Although he was new to the Premier League, his first season at Liverpool was also a steady, even mature, performance. He has now become an integral part of the team and will play a central role under new manager Arne Slot.
The Argentinian midfielder will find further success at Liverpool, and we hope he will become a legend at Anfield for many years to come.
