A few years ago, Thiago Alcantara was unanimously recognized as a reference to his position in Europe. His European campaign with Bayern during the 2019/2020 season had made an impression, and the Spanish-Brazilian then went to the Mersey, to Liverpool. In England, he chained the good and the less good, but remains on a rather mediocre 2022/2023 financial year, with only 18 appearances in the Premier League. The La Masia-trained player wasn’t helped by the physical glitches, it must be said.

And this summer, Liverpool are completely renovating their midfield. The Reds have already formalized the arrivals of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, two players playing in a register similar to his and who are logically more than serious competition for him. In England, it is already explained that Thiago Alcantara has an exit voucher, especially since his contract expires in only one year, and that with his age (32), it is this summer or never if Liverpool want to recover a small check. in exchange for his services.

A very affordable price

According GiveMeSport, he will not necessarily be pushed out the door, but the Reds will listen to any proposal and should not pose too many obstacles to a departure. Especially since he is one of the highest earners in the team… But Thiago remains a player whose talent and class are unproven, and he could bring experience and magic to a lot of clubs.

In Turkey – the player is announced on the side of Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray – it is explained on the Liverpuldiens fixed his price at 20 million euros; a rather affordable amount for any club playing in European competition in the five major championships. The Turkish option therefore exists, but also the possibility of spinning in Saudi Arabia. On his side, Sport indicates that FC Barcelona still has an eye on him. Although it is true that his profile does not seem to be the priority for the Catalan side, which is rather looking for a more defensive midfielder than Thiago. Notice to those interested…
