Man Utd make surprise approach for Liverpool star Mac Allister

Manchester United have been unexpectedly linked with Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister, a move that would surely please Red Devils defender Lisandro Martinez.

According to The Express, Ineos are looking to strengthen Manchester United’s midfield this summer and have set their sights on Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister.

United had previously shown interest in Mac Allister back in 2023, but he ended up signing with Liverpool in a £35 million move instead.

The midfielder played a significant role in the club’s title win last season but could now be on the move once again.

If United are considering a move for Mac Allister, it would no doubt sit well with Martinez. The two Argentinians not only play together at the international level but also share a strong friendship off the pitch.

Lisandro Martinez and Alexis Mac Allister share a close friendship

Over the years, only a handful of players have worn both Manchester United and Liverpool shirts, mostly because of the long-standing rivalry between the two clubs.

Martinez is known for his intensity on the pitch, but when it comes to his friend Mac Allister, he doesn’t let club loyalties get in the way. The two Argentinians have built a strong bond through their time with the national team.

That friendship grew during their time with Argentina’s national team. Both were part of the squad that lifted the World Cup in 2022. Their connection has only strengthened since then.

Martinez has never hidden his respect for Mac Allister as a player, and the two regularly exchange supportive messages on social media.

For instance, back in February, Mac Allister reached out to support Martinez after he suffered an injury.

Fabrizio Romano offers update on Man United links to Alexis Mac Allister

Reports have been swirling about Manchester United’s interest in Alexis Mac Allister, but transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has poured cold water on those claims.

In his latest YouTube video, Romano said: “I’m not aware of anything concrete between Manchester United and Alexis Mac Allister.”

Romano did add that United are expected to target one or two major midfield signings this summer.

However, Ineos hasn’t finalised its priority targets yet, especially with the managerial situation still unresolved and Champions League qualification still uncertain.
