Alexis Mac Allister’s Brighton deal includes an exit clause that could ease a move to Liverpool or Manchester United.
The Argentine has enjoyed an unforgettable campaign with club and country, which has seen him heavily linked with a move to either Old Trafford or Anfield.
The 24-year-old signed a new long-term deal at Brighton just a month before he won the World Cup with Argentina in Qatar.
His performances in the middle east saw his value skyrocket and his father recently admitted that his son is likely to leave the Seagulls this summer.
Brighton are famously shrewd negotiators and have extracted top fees of Ben White and Marc Cucurella in recent years.

The club rejected bids of around £70m for Moises Caicedo in January and Mac Allister is valued at even more than that.
But the Athletic claim the Argentine’s new deal at Brighton includes a clause that could ease his exit from the club.
