Report: Spurs interested in 23-year-old PL star who has shone at World Cup
According to Italian outlet L’Interista, Tottenham Hotspur are one of the clubs interested in Brighton midfielder Alexis Mac Allister ahead of the January transfer window.
Since he first established himself as a regular in Brighton’s starting eleven two years ago, Mac Allister has become an increasingly vital player for the Seagulls.
The 23-year-old is currently having a brilliant campaign, having found the back of the net five times so far this season (Transfermarkt), thus equaling his record tally of goals over a campaign in just 14 matches.
The centre midfielder has taken his club form into Qatar, having stepped up for Argentina in the absence of the injured Giovani Lo Celso.
L’Interista state that Mac Allister’s displays at the World Cup have alerted several clubs across Europe, who are now exploring a move for the midfielder in January.
The report asserts that the Brighton star is ‘really liked’ by Inter Milan and is also being followed closely by Spurs, Juventus and Atletico Madrid.

Mac Allister would certainly fit the profile of number eight that Spurs need and the fact that he comes with Premier League experience would mean that he will likely settle in quicker than the likes of McKennie or Malinovskyi. Perhaps Conte and Paratici will ask Romero to put in a word to the Brighton man regarding a potential switch to Spurs.
