Liverpool have already lost some key players from their dressing room this summer, and Alexis Mac Allister could be joining them through the exit door, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Just 12 months on from winning the Premier League title, Liverpool look set for a summer of wholesale changes, which has started with a switch in the dugout.
The Reds opted to appoint Andoni Iraola following the sacking of Arne Slot, impressed by how the Spaniard performed at Bournemouth, leading them to the Europa League this season.
The Merseyside outfit are already confirmed to be losing Andy Robertson, Ibrahima Konate and Mohamed Salah this summer, with the former duo leaving Anfield on the expiry of contracts.
Make no doubt about it, those are three top players and big personalities in the dressing room, and Iraola will need to work out how to replace three players who were key to the Premier League title success in the 2024-25 campaign.
The trio may not be the last high-profile exits from Liverpool this summer, with Romano hinting that there is a chance that Mac Allister joins them.

Liverpool had a number of players who underwhelmed this season compared to the 2024-25 season, and £55m man Mac Allister was undoubtedly one of them.
Dominik Szoboszlai often showed him up with his consistent performances, with the 'world-class' Argentine and Ryan Gravenberch often a shadow of the players that were so impressive in the title win.
Now, according to Romano, speaking in his latest YouTube video on Wednesday night, Mac Allister could leave Anfield if Liverpool and the player receive a proposal that is attractive, as clubs begin to circle.
The journalist said: "I wanted to mention another name, because there are some clubs starting to look at the situation of Alexis Mac Allister at Liverpool.
"Mac Allister's situation could be interesting this summer. In case of good proposals for Liverpool, for the player, I will not exclude changes in midfield for Liverpool.
"This obviously doesn't mean that McAllister is 100 percent leaving. This doesn't mean that McAllister is out of the Liverpool project. I'm not saying this. I'm saying that in case of a good proposal for the club and for the player, the situation of McAllister could eventually develop during the summer transfer win.
"So, I'm telling you today, this could be a topic. It's not guaranteed, it's not close, it's not advanced, but could be a topic."

Liverpool Eyeing Adam Wharton Move

If Liverpool do sell Mac Allister this summer, then Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton might be the ideal replacement for the World Cup winner.
According to GIVEMESPORT senior correspondent Ben Jacobs, the Reds really appreciate the England international, who didn't make Thomas Tuchel's squad for the North American World Cup.
Wharton isn't the only player on Iraola's shortlist currently, with Liverpool working on a deal to bring RB Leizpig wing sensation Yan Diomande to Anfield.
The Merseysiders are making progress on player side as they look to land their ideal Salah successor, but the Bundesliga outfit are demanding a huge fee to let him leave.
