“It's amazing to be here and I can't wait to get started”

“It feels amazing,” said Mac Allister, who is understood to have signed a five-year deal at Anfield. “It's a dream come true. It's amazing to be here and I can't wait to get started.

“I wanted to be in from the first day of pre-season, so it's good that everything is done. I'm looking forward to meeting my teammates.

“It was a fantastic year for me -– World Cup, what we achieved with Brighton -– but now it's time to think about Liverpool and try to be a better player and a better human being every day.”

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is seeking to bolster his midfield options after the departures of James Milner, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The club were priced out of a move for England teenage star Jude Bellingham, who is set to join Real Madrid after the clubs agreed a fee of €103 million. (AFP)
