Artie looks like she has just noticed Geri looking at her.

Seems unbelievable if he is leaving under half the price of Declan Rice

Alexis Mac Allister has completed a permanent move to Liverpool, for undisclosed terms.

The World Cup winner departs after four-and-a-half years with Albion, having made 112 appearances, scoring 20 goals, including 12 during the 2022/23 season.

Men’s first-team head coach Roberto De Zerbi said, “I’m proud to have been Alexis’s coach; he is a very talented player. It has also been a privilege to work with a guy who has strong and traditional values, and I want to wish him good luck for the future.”

Chairman Tony Bloom added, “We are incredibly proud of Alexis and we are sad to see him go. He did something very special, becoming the first Brighton & Hove Albion player to win the World Cup, and was a key player in our best-ever season.

“He will always be welcome here at the Amex and in the city. On behalf of all Albion fans, I would like to thank Alexis for the many amazing memories and superb performances in a Brighton shirt and wish him well for the next chapter in his career.”

Thanks Alexis. Glad we've been part of your story. Make us proud (but have a stinker when you play us*).

Interesting they’ve given him the number 10 shirt too. I hope for his sake they don’t think they’re signing an elite number 10 position wise or their fans are going to be disappointed.

an undisclosed 55m deal

Thank you Alexis!

All the big guns corroborating the £55m total deal theory.

Indeed, Alexis is better deeper than further forward, I thought he was very average in that 10 position myself that he played when he came back from the WC
