Liverpool supporters have been very interested in the possibility of new signings arriving this summer but we’ve now been given an update on one player who may soon be leaving the club.
Writing for CaughtOffside, Fabrizio Romano said: “Let’s see what happens in the next weeks but as of today, I can guarantee that Thiago Alcantara is only focused on Liverpool, despite reports. Nothing else.
“Saudi clubs have been around but Thiago plans to stay at the club, at least at the moment. I’m sure he wants to stay as priority, approaches from Saudi are not new; it happened in May.”
It’s a positive update as having our No.6 at the club for another season is far from bad news, with the quality that he can bring our midfield being unquestionable.
James Pearce and Raphael Honigstein have reported that the only way a third midfield signing will arrive at Anfield this summer, is if we sell another player at the club.
Although this report above suggests that Thiago Alcantara will not be going anywhere this summer, he is still seemingly the most likely to leave the club.
If it boils down to Romeo Lavia from Southampton or the two-time Champions League winner, we should all be more than happy to see the 32-year-old remain at on Merseyside.
Given the selfless action of curtailing his own season in order to get back to full fitness for the new campaign, it’s clear that the Spanish international has his sights set on helping the Reds.
Jurgen Klopp will be more aware than anyone else that we’re in more than good hands with the former Bayern Munich man.
If if the rumours pertaining to Thiago leaving that can be music in my ears.Thiago is a good player makes no mistake but if he cannot play 6 consecutive matches without injury he is as good as nothing.It means we can never rely on him. So he should leave and his space can be used fruitful in bringing a new player who can add value to the team
The only thing is have the owners the money to replace him? If he went for 20mill they’d be doin well
I want Liverpool to signed another midfielder and defender this summer. Because of injury
Who ever wrote this is deluded. We wouldn’t mind him staying another year! Come on, anyone with eyes can see he is utter garbage zero assists, zero goals and more yellow cards than clean tackles. All scousers and LFC fans £10 donation for his ticket to Saudi. Get real factually worst midfielder in the premier League. Klopp get to sefton park lad you’ll get a better player there for half a quarter of his wages.
Thiago had surgery at the end of the season so that may have sorted his issue out and he could play more of an active part that is point 1
Point 2 is we have just signed 2 starters in CM which would mean that Thiago Hendo and Fab if we signed a DCM would all be bit part players next season and with Trent Bajcetic Jones and Elliot plus the likes of Doak and Clark i would think 2 of the 3 if not all 3 could leave especially if you can recoup £30 -£40m each it could mean adding that to what we have already that could put the likes of Caicedo and others within our price range so its a no lose position for us they stay and we make use of them they go and we profit ploughing it back in to the squad
