Liverpool could be about to trigger a transfer clause in one of their recent deals.

The Anfield club brought in Argentine superstar Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton in the off-season.

But they could have to pay a lot more than fans had expected, if Mac Allister continues to be a success.

“If you take a look at the small print of Brighton's accounts, it says that they could earn up to £40 million from add-ons," finance expert Kieran Maguire told Football Insider.

“I believe the add-ons attached to the Alexis McAllister deal to Liverpool are in the region of £20 million.

“Therefore, if it comes to the last day of the season, expect to see lots of Brighton fans singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' and wanting Liverpool to win the Premier League. And now that Brighton aren't in the Europa League – they will want Liverpool to win that as well because that will mean further money coming to the club.“
