Alexis Mac Allister reflects on 'crazy' two years that saw him join Brighton as an unknown quantity, break into Argentina's World Cup winning side and earn £35m move to Liverpool

Alexis Mac Allister has said the last two years have been tough but crazy - so he makes time every day to enjoy his World Cup and Carabao Cup winners’ medals in his trophy room at home.

The Liverpool star has had a whirlwind few years after joining Brighton as an unknown quantity to most football observers in Europe but quickly asserting himself as one of the best midfielders in the world, breaking into the Argentina team and winning the World Cup.

Performances in that tournament won him vast plaudits and, coupled with fine form on the south coast as Brighton achieved European football for the first time, it earned him a £35million summer move to Liverpool.
