Mac Allister 'very sad' about not being offered new Liverpool contract

[p]The Argentina international is still on the same contract he signed upon his arrival from [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/brighton/2XrRecc3/"]Brighton & Hove Albion[/a] back in 2023, a deal which has just 24 months left. [/p][p]Fellow midfielders [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/gravenberch-ryan/Y5aFd8V4/"]Ryan Gravenberch[/a] and [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/szoboszlai-dominik/dERKtqoo/"]Dominik Szoboszlai[/a] were handed extended deals earlier this year, but [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/mac-allister-alexis/fDPhMB8M/"]Mac Allister[/a] has been left in the dark, which only suggests the club do not see him as part of their future plans. [/p][p]Speaking ahead of [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/game/soccer/atl-madrid-jaarqpLQ/liverpool-lId4TMwf/?mid=6aa0PFtQ"]Liverpool's Champions League opener against Atletico Madrid[/a], the World Cup winner spoke honestly about the situation and how much he loves the club. [/p][p][b]"There was a chance, like everybody knows. I received the news that the club was not in a position to renew my contract, which of course makes me very sad. [/b][/p][p]"I think everyone can see I give my 100 per cent for this club, every single day in training, I have good games, bad games. I always give my best. [/p][p][b]"I see Dominik (Szoboszlai) and Ryan (Gravenberch) renewing their contracts, which makes me happy. Same time it makes me sad I didn't get mine. [/b][/p][embed guid="4d574e8a-1d61-46b5-baf4-a14dcab5f9fa" url="https://x.com/ChampionsLeague/status/2095817143090663441?s=20" social-type="twitter" /][p]"There is still time, I will give my 100 per cent until my last day. We will see what happens. There was options to leave this summer. Right now I'm in the right club." [/p][p]Responding to Mac Allister’s surprise outburst, Andoni Iraola added: [b]“We all have responsibilities, contracts with a club. We haven't been together a lot of time but (Mac Allister) is very important and has played a lot of minutes very highly. We have time to talk about those contract situations.” [/b][/p][p]Real Madrid and Manchester City were heavily linked with a move over the summer, but no move materialised. Mac Allister has been on a steady decline at the club over the past year, but there is a chance he could play his way into a new deal, with Iraola keeping a close eye on him over the coming months.[/p]
