Alexis Mac Allister is on the verge of sealing his move to Liverpool.
Mac Allister has emerged as the Anfield club’s immediate priority as they target a close season rebuild with a key emphasis on the midfield department.
Brighton granted the Argentina international permission to undertake a medical with Jurgen Klopp’s side on Tuesday ahead of his proposed transfer.
The Reds turned their attention to a deal for Mac Allister after they publicly withdrew from the race for Borussia Dortmund playmaker Jude Bellingham.
Personal terms are already understood to have been agreed with the World Cup winner, who is set to sign a five-year contract, ahead of the medical.
Liverpool are keen to tie up Mac Allister’s signature before he links up with his country for their summer friendlies with Australia and Indonesia next week.
