Liverpool Midfielder Mac Allister Reveals No New Contract: 'I Am Very Sad, But I Will Fight Until My Last Day'

Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister personally confirmed that the club has not offered him a new contract so far, which has made him "very sad." He also admitted that he had an option to leave this summer, but for now he will continue to give everything for Liverpool.

"The club is unable to give me a new contract"

On September 8 Beijing time, at the pre-match press conference before Liverpool's Champions League opener against Atletico Madrid, the 27-year-old Mac Allister spoke very directly. He revealed that he learned from his agent that the club was "unable" to offer him a new contract. He said: "Everyone knows that I received the news that the club cannot give me a new contract, and it made me very, very sad."

Mac Allister's current contract with Liverpool has two years remaining, and he signed the deal when he joined the club in the summer of 2023. What made the situation more difficult for him was that two other midfielders in the squad, Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch, both signed new long-term contracts this year. Mac Allister said he was happy for them because they deserved it, but at the same time, he could not help feeling disappointed that he did not receive a new contract.

"I will give 100 percent until the last day"

Despite feeling down, Mac Allister still tried to reassure the fans. He stressed that he gives 100 percent every day in training and matches, and his attitude will not change whether he plays well or poorly. He said: "The fans don't need to worry. I will give 100 percent until my last day here."

Speaking about the future, Mac Allister did not rule anything out. He said there is still time and everything will depend on his performances during the upcoming season. He said: "Maybe, I don't know. It depends on my performances this year. They have the right to make decisions, but I hope they can change their minds."

"There was no direct conversation, only communication through my agent"

When asked whether the club had provided a reason for not renewing his contract, Mac Allister gave a notable response. He said he had not had any direct conversation with the club and that the information had all been passed on through his agent. He did not want to speak on behalf of the club about things they had not said, but the message he received from his agent was that the club currently does not have the ability to renew his contract.

Mac Allister also mentioned winning the Premier League title with the team and the difficult moments they experienced together. He said those memories made the current situation feel even more regrettable. However, he once again emphasized that his current mindset is to give everything for the club, and as for what happens in the future, he can only move forward and see.
