Liverpool fullback Andrew Robertson has welcomed new teammate Alexis Mac Allister.

The Argentina attacker signed for the Reds last week from Brighton for £35m.

"I wish we had picked him up earlier, so I could have convinced him to play for Scotland. He is a fantastic player. He has impressed for Argentina and Brighton, he is already world champion," Robertson joked on Sky Sports.

"He is a really good signing for us, we got him early so that he can participate in the pre-season and adapt. He has all the qualities and we will help him in the best way. I look forward to meeting him and welcoming him.

"I can't wait to see him in a Liverpool shirt."
