After passing a physical exam and agreeing to terms on a contract that will run until June 2028, World Cup winner Mac Allister moved from Brighton last week.
Previously, Mail Sport revealed that Reds officials had been keeping tabs on the midfielder since before the winter tournament in Qatar. Although the final price has not been officially disclosed, it is believed to be in the neighborhood of £35 million.
Mac Allister expressed his happiness at receiving the No. 10 shirt on Merseyside, a move that highlights his significance to Klopp's plan for the upcoming season.
Additionally, he singled out Klopp as a key driver of the transfer.
I had the opportunity to speak with him, Mac Allister stated in a statement to ESPN Argentina. Making the choice so early in the market was one of the most crucial factors.
"I saw the desire to have myself and the desire to keep winning championships for the club, so it was very important to me," the player said.
We discussed football, his perspective on it, and his desire for the team to keep developing and winning trophies.
The playmaker continued to speak highly of his new team, stating that it was a dream come true to join one of the best teams in the world and the biggest in England.
'This opportunity comes to me at a really crucial time, therefore I want to make the most of it.
Klopp admired Mac Allister from a distance and is certain that his new hire will adapt quickly due to his versatility and keen sense of the game.
We are adding a really talented, extremely intelligent, and very technically gifted boy to our roster, and this is wonderful news, really it is, Klopp remarked following the reveal.
It is obvious that Alexis is someone who can play in a variety of midfield positions and is an all-arounder, in my opinion, so I don't believe the football world needs me to speak too much about his skills since they are already fairly well known.
"He is a person with appropriate game intelligence. He is cool and composed.
He is a player that we are familiar with, of course.
