Liverpool are focusing their best on midfield reform, as evidenced by the fɑct that the first two signings of the summer of 2022 are two players in the midfield, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.

Thiago Alcantara currently has one year left on his contract with Liverpool, but the two sides show no sign of wanting to extend it. Now 32 years old, the Spaniard is no longer suitable for Klopp’s gegen-pressing. A farewell will be good for both parties, Liverpool of course will not lose the former star of Bayern Munich in the summer of 2024.

The Kop will listen to all offers, especially when the teams in Saudi Arabia are keeping a close eye on Thiago. The talented midfielder himself does not have any prejudice about if he has to go to the Middle East to play football.

Thiago Alcantara’s numerous injuries and fitness are not enough to play Klopp’s style consistently, and he is believed to be on his way out of Anfield for just around £50m.

Regardless of age, contract or injury, Thiago joins Fabinho, Jordan Henderson and teenage player Stefan Bajcetic as regular Liverpool deep-lying midfielders. This is a superfluous crisis and Klopp needs to purge.

When selling Thiago, Liverpool is considered quite comfortable and does not pressure the price in this deal, especially if the partners from Saudi Arabia always pay very generously.

In terms of money, Liverpool also need to sell Thiago to balance the salary fund. Regardless of how the Spaniard has contributed over the years, he is always in the Top of the highest-paid stars at Anfield with £200,000 per week

As for Thiago, he took steps to prove his days at Anfield could be coming to an end by removing Liverpool from his Instagram watch list on Monday. If given the choice again, Thiago would probably choose to leave a year early in the summer of 2022, when his price is still set at £80 million.
