Alexis Mac Allister breaks silence on his future amid Chelsea, Liverpool and Man Utd links

Brighton's Alexis Mac Allister has stated he is "very calm" about his current situation amid strong interest from Chelsea and other Premier League clubs ahead of the summer transfer window opening.

The midfielder has enjoyed a stellar campaign for club and country, providing a boost to Argentina en route to World Cup glory before guiding Brighton to Europa League qualification with 10 goals and two assists in the English top-flight.

Liverpool have been heavily linked with making Mac Allister a statement signing to kickstart the club's midfield revamp this summer, however Stamford Bridge has remained in the mix as a potential destination with his future still undecided.

Speaking on that subject, the man himself confirmed to Miami-based Argentine outlet Infobae that he is remaining calm ahead of a critical stage in his career.

"I am very calm because I also have the possibility of being in a club like Brighton that accompanied me at all times and in which I really enjoy being," Mac Allister said.

"If I do not have to leave the club I will continue to be very happy there, but I am aware that there are possibilities (to move) and if a good offer arrives for the club and for me we will evaluate it.

"I have no doubts that (the Premier League) is the best league to play in and that is why I am aware that I would like my next club to be in the Premier. I really enjoy being there."

Additionally, the Seagulls' man revealed the ambitions he holds dear, and that could influence where he believes is the best place for him to develop.

He said: "The objective is to continue improving as a person, as a player, to win more titles. I think this is my short-term objective and it will always be, because I will always be the same person and I will want to be a little better than the day before, so I focus a lot on that.

"I'm not going to complain, I'm 24 years old, I'm a world champion, I play in one of the best leagues in the world and I feel that my career is growing, but I still have my feet on the ground and I really want to improve, becoming a better person and better player every day. We'll see what the future brings."
