The Argentine was one of our standout performers during last season’s title-winning campaign, but this year has been far more inconsistent, and that drop-off now appears to be reflected in off-field developments as well.

No contract talks yet for Mac Allister

Writing for The Times, Paul Joyce provided a concerning insight into the current state of play regarding the World Cup winner’s future.

“There is, of course, doubt surrounding the future of Mac Allister.”

The report highlights that while other midfielders are progressing in discussions, the situation for the 27-year-old remains unresolved.

“Gravenberch has signed a new deal, and talks with Szoboszlai continue but, last week, Mac Allister’s camp said no negotiations were presently taking place regarding the extension of a player who, like many, has not found the rhythm of last term.”

That lack of movement is significant, especially when you consider how central the former Brighton man was to us just 12 months ago.
