The star of Qatar 2022, the international from Argentina, moves to Anfield for what is thought to be an initial price of about $35. It may increase to £55m, according to sources.
Argentinos Juniors' Mac Allister was acquired, and he spent four years at Brighton, including two loan stints back in his native country.
He was reportedly a top target for Liverpool before the World Cup, and the club values his adaptability, according to Sky Sports News.
The 24-year-old's arrival is likely to mark the start of what appears to be a hectic summer at Anfield, where Jurgen Klopp is aiming to retool a team that failed to qualify for the Champions League this season.
Since Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and James Milner all have expiring contracts and Arthur Melo will be returning to Juventus at the end of his loan, midfield is a specific area of need for Liverpool.
Milner will soon relocate to Brighton after completing his switch to the Amex.

"I always say that I like to be in contact with the ball," he said in a statement to Sky Sports. "I feel better the closer I go to the ball. I enjoy playing in the midfield. Whether it is a 6, an 8, or a 10 is irrelevant. As a child, I was a ten. However, I eventually realized that I could play in additional positions.
"I believe it is critical for today's players to be able to play multiple positions so that the team and manager have a variety of options. Even while I know I can play as a 6 or a 10, if you asked me, I would respond that today I feel more at ease as an 8.
