Alexis Mac Allister's father has responded to the Liverpool star possibly joining rivals Manchester United. The 27-year-old is under contract at Anfield until 2028.
Having arrived from Brighton for £55million in 2023, the versatile Mac Allister played a pivotal role in the Reds' Premier League title triumph last term under Arne Slot. This season has been lacklustre by those standards, but he has had to take up a deeper role with Florian Wirtz introduced to the starting XI.
However, the player's father has now been asked about the possibility of a groundbreaking switch from Merseyside to Manchester. And he made it very clear where Mac Allister stands.
The 27-year-old's father, Carlos, was questioned by winwin about the potential United transfer and admitted his son is "only thinking about Liverpool" at the moment.
Carlos added: "We are waiting for an offer to renew his contract. We will see what the club's plan is." He was also asked if Mac Allister could leave should negotiations stall, replying: "We'll wait and see what happens with the renewal. That's all."

Mac Allister has not enjoyed the best of seasons with Liverpool. His side have failed to mount a bona fide title defence and currently sit outside the top four.
Yet despite this slump, the Argentine made a stark admission earlier this month. He told the club's website: "We feel like we are in a good moment.
"In a much better moment than the beginning of the season. We are improving as a team which is the most important thing. The manager had a really good meeting where he said that we needed to improve in both boxes.

"That's what we wanted and I think we have showed it. We are more aggressive. That's what we want and that's what we want to be consistent on. I think it's key.
"We have many players that are injured, so it's not that easy, but we are getting there. I think we are all happy. We are in a good moment but we need to keep working and keep improving."
