A host of clubs are interested in Brighton prospect Alexis Mac Allister.

The Seagulls loaned Mac Allister back to Argentinos Juniors after signing him in January.

His father, Carlos, says the attacking midfielder also wanted by Independiente, Boca Juniors, Estudiantes and San Lorenzo

He said - via the Argus: said: "He still doesn't have a community passport and we think that the process, which we haven't started yet, may take a year.

"He can continue in Argentina or anywhere in the world, but here he's wanted by Independiente, Boca, Estudiantes and San Lorenzo.

"We gave the word to Argentinos Juniors that if Brighton wanted to loan him for only six months he would stay because it's his home, and for six months it doesn't seem good for him to leave."
