Liverpool get Alexis Mac Allister transfer update from Brighton as fans wowed by Moises Caicedo

Welcome to your Liverpool FC morning digest for Monday, April 24.

Brighton CEO breaks silence on Alexis Mac Allister future amid Liverpool transfer links

Brighton & Hove Albion CEO Paul Barber has refused to rule out sanctioning a summer move for World Cup winner and Liverpool-linked midfielder Alexis Mac Allister.

The Reds are the latest Premier League side to be linked with a move for the 24-year-old Argentine, despite him penning a new long-term contract on the south coast last autumn.

Mac Allister has enjoyed an instantaneous rise both on the Premier League and international stage over the last six months after playing a key role in helping Argentina win their first World Cup in 36 years at the 2022 finals, before assisting the Seagulls in their quest to secure European qualification this term.

Earlier this month it was claimed that Mac Allister's agent was due to meet with Anfield officials and discuss a potential move to Merseyside this summer, with Liverpool recently pausing their pursuit of Borussia Dortmund Jude Bellingham and instead targeting numerous additions in the engine room.

Speaking to talkSPORT, Barber admitted he is unsure what the summer will bring for the midfielder but insisted the club are braced for such heavy interest - which they will manage accordingly.

Murphy, however, was not the only on-looker to be impressed by the performance of Caicedo, with Arsenal and Chelsea supporters joining Reds fans in their praise of the midfielder on social media
