Liverpool transfer U-turn will be massive for wonderkid

Liverpool have already been through a lot of ups and downs this season.

They've lost three games across all competitions and, while their defeats against Manchester City and Arsenal can be accepted, their 3-2 loss against Fenerbahce was terrible.

There's no way that the Turkish Super Lig side should have even had a chance of beating Liverpool but, thanks to their poor performance, they were humbled.

These outings have caused many different transfer links to emerge from Anfield and now, the club look likely to make a transfer U-turn that could be hugely beneficial to one of their wonderkids.

Alexis Mac Allister is looking more likely to stay at Liverpool

Alexis Mac Allister has undoubtedly been the best midfielder among Liverpool's ranks this season.

But, before the campaign kicked off, that was far from the case.

Last term, he was massively underperforming which led fans to question whether he was even worth keeping around with some even begging a team such as Real Madrid to make a move for him.

Obviously, this didn't happen and, although at the end of summer this felt like a bit of a disappointment, fans will be thankful that he stayed put.

However, with his contract expiring in June 2028, a decision needs to be made on his future soon.

And, although most of the reports to emerge from Liverpool have shared that the Reds didn't want to extend his stay, a new update from journalist Ismael Mahmoud says otherwise.

"We will hear good news in the next 10 days I guess," Mahmoud wrote in response to a quote from Steven Gerrard who stated that he thinks Mac Allister should be offered a new contract.

Alexis Mac Allister staying with Liverpool is great news for Trey Nyoni

As mentioned, Mac Allister has been extremely important for Liverpool this season.

Without him, the Reds would have been way worse off and would have probably ended up even further down the Premier League table than they currently are.

But, not only has Mac Allister had a positive impact on the way things have gone at Liverpool but, he's also brought Trey Nyoni on leaps and bounds.

The 19-year-old was on the verge of joining Swansea on a season-long loan in the summer but, thanks to Curtis Jones' desire to leave and Iraola's trust in youngsters, he was asked to stay.

This is arguably one of the most important decisions that Liverpool made this season as, even though the midfielder is only 19 years old, every time he's been used, he's managed to control the game.

And, for one reason or another, whenever he's played alongside Mac Allister, the best version of the Englishman emerges.

So, keeping the Argentinian around could genuinely be the best thing for Nyoni which, in the long-run, will massively benefit Liverpool.
