Incoming Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino wants the club’s top brass to move in for Liverpool target Alexis Mac Allister in the forthcoming summer transfer window.
Pochettino is gearing up to take charge at Stamford Bridge before the next season gets underway and the former Tottenham Hotspur boss is said to be looking to bolster Chelsea’s midfield options.
The Blues could part company with Mateo Kovacic and Mason Mount, both of whom will enter the final year of their respective contracts, and uncertainty continues to surround the future of N’Golo Kante who can leave as a free agent this summer.
According to a report from the Spanish news outlet Fichajes, it is claimed that Chelsea could push for the signatures of Brighton star Alexis Mac Allister who is rumoured to be a top name on the shopping list for Liverpool.
Mac Allister is all but certain to leave the Amex fold at the end of the season with the country’s biggest clubs – Liverpool and Manchester United – credited with a strong interest in the World Cup winning Argentine.
