Liverpool might not have things all their own way when it comes to tracking Alexis Mac Allister this summer - but signing the Brighton playmaker and two other high-profile players will help manager Jurgen Klopp put together his dream line-up for next season.
Having shelved plans to target Borussia Dortmund sensation Jude Bellingham when the market reopens - owing to the financial costs involved - Liverpool will instead aim to spread out the budget. With that, Mac Allister has sprung to the forefront, although reports suggest he might set the Reds back £70m.
Impressive displays for Brighton this season have seen the Argentina playmaker skyrocket in value and, then, came the iconic World Cup triumph which has propelled him further on the global stage. As such, Liverpool are not tipped to have a free run at his sought-after signature.
