Former Premier League Striker Claims Liverpool Star is Worth £400m | OneFootball

Mac Allister’s Masterclass Marks New Era at Liverpool

Slot’s Champions Deliver on Anfield’s Grand Stage

Liverpool’s emphatic 5-1 dismantling of Tottenham wasn’t just a final flourish; it was a coronation. Under the guidance of Arne Slot—whose arrival was met with both intrigue and scepticism—Liverpool secured their second Premier League title in style. There were echoes of dominance from seasons past, but also signs of something new, something evolving. It was a day when Anfield felt its pulse quicken again.

Slot, composed and commanding throughout his debut season in England, declared the title was theirs before a ball was even kicked on Sunday. That belief filtered into the team, reflected in every surging run, crisp pass and clinical finish as the Merseysiders delivered a statement victory.

Midfield Engine Powers Liverpool’s Title Charge

Central to Liverpool’s success this campaign has been a midfield that marries technical excellence with relentless work rate. For former Watford captain Troy Deeney, it’s the heart of the Slot revolution.

“When you look at the midfield, his [Slot’s] whole season has been encapsulated by that midfield three,” Deeney told TalkSport. “Ryan Gravenberch has been fantastic, he’s one of two players to play every game, and then there’s Alexis Mac Allister, who for £40m now looks like he could be worth £400m.”

Deeney’s valuation isn’t mere hyperbole. Mac Allister has grown into one of the most complete midfielders in Europe, dictating tempo, intercepting danger, and scoring goals that define seasons. His curling effort against Tottenham—an elegant strike that fizzed past the outstretched Guglielmo Vicario—summed up both his poise and purpose.

Mac Allister Compared to Club Legends

There are few compliments weightier at Liverpool than being compared to Steven Gerrard. Yet Jamie Redknapp went there, hailing Mac Allister’s influence in the title-clinching performance.

Indeed, the Argentine’s contributions have extended beyond statistics. He has been the glue between defence and attack, the calming presence when nerves frayed, and the spark when Liverpool needed ignition. In a season defined by adaptation—new manager, new system, new dynamics—Mac Allister has not only survived; he has excelled.

At 26, his ceiling remains dauntingly high. Reports of Real Madrid’s interest are hardly surprising. What’s striking is that such attention feels justified. The price tag may sound fanciful to some, but in an inflated market where potential is often paid for in advance, £400m feels less like exaggeration and more like recognition of proven, elite impact.

Liverpool’s Next Chapter Has Its Pillars

While Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk may still claim the marquee awards, Mac Allister’s name belongs in the conversation. His seamless adjustment into a deeper midfield role—often alongside the tireless Gravenberch—has elevated both himself and Liverpool.

Slot’s style, more surgical than emotional, demands intelligence as much as industry. Mac Allister provides both in abundance. He reads the game like a veteran, executes like a technician, and inspires like a leader.

This season wasn’t just about reclaiming a title—it was about establishing the future. Liverpool have found a pillar in Mac Allister. If £400m sounds bold, consider what’s next.
