Liverpool are also understood to be in the race to sign the in-demand midfielder.

Arsenal, Manchester City, and Manchester United are all interested in Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Alexis Mac Allister.

The World Cup winner with Argentina is understood to be willing to leave Brighton and join a bigger club.

The Seagulls have reportedly placed a price tag of £70 million on the midfielder. The Argentine has scored eight goals across all competitions for Brighton this season.

Bernardo Silva

Manchester City are willing to let Bernado Silva leave the club amid Barcelona links.

The Citizens are understood to be keen on cashing in on the Portuguese star. Barcelona are ready to improve Silva’s wages as his contract is expected to end in June 2025.

It is reported that City have already informed Silva’s agent, Jorge Mendes, that they are ready to let the star leave if an offer of £65 million is met.

Mason Mount

Elsewhere, Chelsea’s Mason Mount is keen on a move to Liverpool in the summer.

Mount has less than 18 months left on his Blues’ contract and is yet to sign a new deal. It is further reported that the 24-year-old is a huge admirer of Jurgen Klopp, and this might tempt him to make a move.

Naby Keita

Former RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita is reportedly going to leave Liverpool on a free transfer.

There has been no contract talks between the Guinean – who has had to deal with injury setbacks in the season – and Liverpool over a possible new contract.

Angel Di Maria

Meanwhile, Serie A giants Juventus are ready to sit down and have new contract talks with former Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria.

Reports in Italy indicate that the family of the World Cup winner has settled well in Turin, and this is a positive indication that the former Manchester United star could be willing to extend his stay at Juventus.

Josko Gvardiol

Manchester City are interested in RB Leipzig’s Josko Gvardiol as a potential replacement for Aymeric Laporte.

Laporte has been reduced to almost a peripheral figure at City, and this could force him to leave, with PSG being a possible destination.
