Former Arsenal academy striker, Jay Bothroyd has told the club to sign Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton.

The midfielder has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool this summer and the Reds are confident of securing a deal for the Argentina international.

Bothroyd reckons Mikel Artetaโ€™s side should be all over the 24-year-old, adding that the midfielder could play in the same role as Granit Xhaka.

Xhaka has been linked with a move to Bayer Leverkusen.

Mac Allister, like Xhaka, has passing skills and the diligence to do his bit off the ball.

Bothroyd told FourFourTwo, โ€œI would go with Mac Allister as well from Brighton. I think heโ€™s a fantastic player; he could play in the Xhaka position as one of the three midfielders; he gets forward well, good on set-pieces, strong on the ball; heโ€™s someone I think can help Arsenal going forward.โ€
