Chelsea have been handed a huge boost in the race to sign Alexis Mac Allister as Graham Potter looks to bolster his options in the summer. The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Brighton for some time now as he continues to impress for club and country.
football.london understands that the centre of midfield is high on the agenda for the Blues at the end of the season and frequent conversations among the hierarchy behind the scenes have already taken place. With that said, Chelsea hold a keen interest in Mac Allister, who worked alongside Potter at the Amex Stadium.
Enzo Fernandez and the Seagulls star were integral to Argentina's success at the World Cup in December. Mac Allister has managed to continue his great vein of form since returning from Qatar, featuring eights times for Roberto De Zerbi's side in the Premier League and registering three goal involvements.
