Madrid giants Real and Atlético are reportedly showing significant interest in acquiring Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister. According to the Argentine outlet "Olé," the Royal Club views the Argentine as an excellent option to bolster their squad, especially if Florentino Pérez wins the upcoming presidential elections.

The source claims that for Atlético head coach Diego Simeone, signing Mac Allister has become an "obsession." The 'Rojiblancos' already feature several of his Argentine national teammates: Juan Musso, Nahuel Molina, Nico González, Thiago Almada, Giuliano Simeone, and Julián Álvarez, which would undoubtedly ease his adaptation.

Liverpool is not expected to stand in Mac Allister's way and will aim to maximize the situation by selling him for a substantial fee. The player himself is reportedly open to the prospect of continuing his career in La Liga.

Last season, Mac Allister participated in 55 matches across all competitions, contributing 5 goals and 7 assists.

The World Cup winner's current contract with Liverpool runs until the summer of 2028.
