Tottenham given Alexis Mac Allister transfer verdict amid Brighton chief contract admission

Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has joked that Spurs should have signed Brighton's Alexis Mac Allister over Yves Bissouma. The claim comes after Bissouma's ex-team-mate played a crucial role in helping Argentina achieve World Cup glory in Qatar on Sunday.

Mac Allister was on the score sheet in the group stage win against Poland and provided a perfectly-weighted pass for Angel Di Maria to double Argentina's lead in the final after Lionel Messi had opened the scoring from the penalty spot.

Prior to the tournament commencing, Brighton were receiving a lot of interest regarding a number of their players, most notably Leandro Trossard and Moises Caicedo. But following Mac Allister's starring role, he could be the latest Seagulls player on the transfer wish lists of many top European clubs.
