Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister is currently involved in a legal dispute that has drawn attention away from his football career. The 25-year-old Argentine international, an important player for both Liverpool and the Argentina national team, is reportedly facing a lawsuit filed by Mayan over unresolved financial issues from their past relationship, according to *The Mirror*.
Ahead of Argentinaâs upcoming match against Paraguay, Mac Allister addressed the situation, confirming that his relationship with Mayan had ended definitively. He emphasized that the matter is now in the hands of the legal system.
The former Brighton midfielder explained that the decision to pursue legal action was made by Mayan, and he respects her choice. He also stated that any differences they had were discussed when they separated. He reassured that he was committed to resolving the matter through the appropriate legal channels.
âThere was no more relationship. She chose her path, and I chose mine,â Mac Allister said. âAs for the lawsuit, itâs in court, where it belongs, and weâre waiting. We discussed everything we needed to at the time, but it was her decision. Everything is fine, and sheâs within her rights.â
