On 25 May 2025, Mac Allister was a member of the Union SG squad that achieved the 2024–25 Belgian Pro League, ending a 90-year title drought. Two months later, on 5 July, he extended his contract with the club until 2027.

Personal life Mac Allister is of predominantly Irish descent, with some Scottish ancestry as well. His Irish ancestry can be traced back to Donabate, County Dublin, while his Scottish ancestry can be traced back to Tarbert, Kintyre. Mac Allister's Scottish forefather Charles McAllister, a Protestant who converted to Catholicism, had temporarily moved to Donabate from the Scottish town of Tarbert in the 18th century. Charles' descendant Joseph McAllister emigrated from Donabate in 1865 to acquire farmland in Argentina, where the family name was changed to Mac Allister. Additionally, Mac Allister has Italian ancestry through his maternal grandmother, whose roots trace back to Belmonte del Sannio, Isernia.

Mac Allister has two brothers, Alexis who plays as a midfielder for club Liverpool and the Argentina national team with whom he won the 2022 FIFA World Cup and Francis who plays as a midfielder for Deportes La Serena of the Liga de Primera. They are the sons of Carlos Mac Allister and nephews of Patricio Mac Allister.

As of 2024, Mac Allister was engaged to marry Tatiana Batista, daughter of former footballer and coach Fernando Batista. The couple married on 14 June 2025, and announced in the same month they were expecting their first child together.

Mac Allister is named after the main protagonist of the American Christmas family comedy film Home Alone, a fact that he did not find out until he was eighteen years old.
