(VIEDO) The peculiar story of the Mac Allister brothers who will face each other in the Europa League

Alexis Mac Allister has been performing well since his arrival with the Reds, earning himself a starting place and every week he continues to prove that he can be a great wearer of the number ten shirt. During the next match where the Reds will play against Union Sain-Gilloise of Belgium we will be able to witness the reunion of the Mac Allister brothers, as his brother Kevin plays for the Union.

Alexis Mac Allister was born in Santa Rosa, La Pampa in Argentina on 24 December 1998, son of a great footballer like Carlos Mac Allister who played as a left back and his beginnings in football were in the youth team of Argentinos Jrs, where he had a good performance and moved to Boca Juniors one of the biggest teams in the country, where Carlos was a great figure.  Alexis also had his start with Argentinos Jrs, where he did very well since his beginnings and so Brighton signed him in 2019, however he left him on loan at Boca Juniors where he ended up polishing his great level, during his stay with Argentinos Jrs, he played alongside his brother Francis and Kevin.

His brother Kevin is older than Alexis by one year and was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina on 7 November 1997. Kevin also started his football career in Argentinos Jrs and in 2019 he moved to Boca Juniors, where he also had the opportunity to play alongside his brother Francis. His brother Kevin is older than Alexis by one year and was born in Buenos Aires Argentina on 7 November 1997. Kevin also started his football career at Argentinos Jrs and in 2019 he moved to Boca Juniors, where he also had the opportunity to play alongside his brother Alexis before his departure to England, so they have played together for quite some time.

<br/><strong>Meeting of brothers </strong>

While the Mac Allisters have played against each other on a few occasions in Argentina, while Alexis had already been acquired by Brighton and stayed on loan with Boca, Kevin was still playing for Argentinos Juniors, so they have played against each other, however the next match will be something special as it will be the first match where the Mac Allister brothers can play against each other in an international tournament.
