Brighton & Hove Albion sign Argentine midfielder
Mac Allister has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal with the Seagulls. He came through the Juniors academy and made his senior debut in a goalless draw with Central Cordoba in October 2016, as the club secured promotion to the Argentinian top flight as champions later that season.
In total, the midfielder has scored eight goals in 58 appearances for Juniors, including three in nine games so far this season.

“It is in the best interests of all three parties to allow him to return to Juniors, as he will be able to continue playing regular first-team football in a very competitive league.
“We will keep a close eye on his development over the coming months, and it is a pleasure to welcome him to the football club.”
