Liverpool have completed a deal for Alexis Mac Allister, who arrives at Anfield on the back of a hugely successful spell at Brighton.
The fee paid by the Reds for the 24-year-old remains undisclosed, though is believed to be between £35m and £45million. Given the player's age and Premier League experience, this piece of business represents a steal for Jurgen Klopp's side.
Masters of the transfer window in recent years with sporting director Michael Edwards at the helm, Liverpool will be hoping this is a trend that can continue following the recent appointment of Jorg Schmadtke. Acquiring the services of a World Cup winner at the price Liverpool have managed is certainly a step in the right direction to achieving this aim.
Such business has not gone unnoticed by rival supporters of the Reds, who are fully aware of just what a coup the Mac Allister deal appears to be. Taking to social media, fans of clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester United have used this transfer as an example for their team to follow.
