All three players have struggled to make their Mark at Manchester United this season, and it is unlikely. Liverpool will accept them as part of the deal to sell one of their best players.
Mac Allister might not be too keen on joining Manchester United either. If he leaves Liverpool, he will want to join a bigger club where he can fight for major trophies. Manchester United are not at the level required to win league titles or the UEFA Champions League. Joining them might seem like a step down for the player.
