"Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso has reportedly given the club a list of four midfielders he'd like to sign, including big names at Liverpool and Chelsea. Real lost 1-0 to Liverpool at Anfield in this week's big Champions League game, with Alexis Mac Allister scoring the winner in an impressive display against Alonso's side. It now seems the Spanish tactician is keen to add the Argentina international to his squad in what looks like something of a problem position at the Bernabeu."
"Mac Allister has been a key player for Liverpool, so it surely won't be easy for Los Blancos to persuade the Reds to sell. The 26-year-old does look, however, like he'd be an ideal fit for this Madrid team, with Alonso lacking someone who can dictate the play like that in the middle of the park. LFC fans will no doubt hope Mac Allister stays and continues to play a part in the team's success,"
Xabi Alonso has submitted a shortlist of four midfield targets: Alexis Mac Allister, Enzo Fernandez, Adam Wharton, and Vitinha. Real Madrid conceded a 1-0 defeat to Liverpool where Mac Allister produced the winning performance. Madrid previously tracked Martin Zubimendi before his move to Arsenal and now appears focused on players who can improve midfield control and creativity. Vitinha ranks highest for passing and creativity per DataMB but is a key PSG player and likely difficult to secure. Wharton could be available as a Crystal Palace talent seeking a big move, while Mac Allister offers the strongest defensive and all-round profile.
