Alexis Mac Allister has become Liverpool’s first signing of this summer.

Mac Allister arrives from Brighton & Hove Albion, where his array of performances helped earn a place in Argentina’s World Cup-winning squad.

The midfielder will wear the no.10 shirt at Anfield and joins Jurgen Klopp’s side in a deal understood to be worth in the region of £35 million.

“It feels amazing. It’s a dream come true, it’s amazing to be here and I can’t wait to get started,” said Mac Allister.

“I wanted to be in [from] the first day of pre-season, so it’s good that everything is done. I’m looking forward to meeting my teammates.

“It was a fantastic year for me – World Cup, what we achieved with Brighton.

“But now it’s time to think about Liverpool and try to be a better player and a better human being every day.”

He added:  “Since I won the World Cup, I said that I want to win more trophies and I think that this club will help me to do that.

“That’s the aim and when you are in a big club like this one you have to win trophies. So, that’s what I want.”
