The Colombian wanted to have that number on his shirt, but the new Argentine signing has earned it.

The presentation of Alex Mac Callister with Liverpool has caused a sensation. The Argentine world champion had a spectacular video to kick it off with the fans who are already feeling very optimistic that they will have a very successful signing for the future in the Premier League.

The midfielder, who had a brilliant last season, is already considered one of the most important players in Europe, and they will try to return to the top with the guidance of coach Jürgen Klopp, who does not want to say goodbye to the Reds but could do so if they do not fight for the title against Manchester City.

Among the players who were unable to give their full effort last season was Luis Diaz. The Colombian was injured for half of the tournament and was only able to return in the last few games, when the Anfield side had no point of return and were stuck in fourth place in the overall table.

The quality he has led him to be the heir of Sadio Mané, who left the team to sign for Bayern Munich and who failed in a monumental way and was singled out for fighting with some teammates. Even so, his number was left vacant and the South American wanted it, but the board thought differently when they signed their rising star.

What number will Mac Allister take from Diaz?

At the official presentation of Alexis Mac Allister it was also announced that the Argentinean will have the number 10 jersey on his back. This after they were unable to register it in favor of Luis Diaz, who had worn it in some friendly matches, but the Premier League banned him and it remained vacant for a long period of time.
