Arsenal and Chelsea transfer target Alexis Mac Allister has responded to recent speculation surrounding a potential move in the coming weeks. The Brighton midfielder has had an impressive season so far, leading to links over a transfer, with the January transfer window now open.
The 24-year-old has seen his stock rise for the Seagulls this season with his displays in the Premier League, playing as both a deeper and more advanced option in the side. That was only amplified further during the winter as he became an unlikely hero for Argentina in their World Cup triumph.
His victory was paraded at Brighton's training ground on Monday to welcome him back to the club, with manager Roberto De Zerbi claiming he hopes for the star to stay in the future: "I spoke with him an hour ago about playing better. If he wants to stay, we're happy. It's better for him as well as for us.
