Liverpool ended up selling plenty of Premier League title-winning talent last summer.
We saw the likes of Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhin Kelleher and Trent Alexander-Arnold all depart for pastures new.
Those stars had to make way in order for new signings - which included Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak. But one more player was subject to a transfer headhunt by Real Madrid according to a new report in Defensa Central.
It was Alexis Mac Allister, who originally signed for the Anfield club from Brighton in summer 2023.

It was €150m, according to the report, and the Spanish outlet also claims that Mac Allister gave his blessing to a move to the Bernabeu.
"We won't negotiate for less than 150 million euros," was the response Liverpool gave to Real Madrid and, incidentally, also to the player, who admitted to his face that they didn't want to sell him and that they were counting on him, despite the fact that the Santa Rosa native was excited about the possibility of wearing the white shirt, something that reached the ears of Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez,” the report reads.
