Liverpool’s midfielder Thiago Alcantara is reportedly poised to leave the club at the season’s end, with his contract expiring, according to Neil Jones via CaughtOffside.
Since his move from Bayern Munich in 2020, Thiago has faced challenges in consistently meeting performance expectations, compounded by persistent injury setbacks, which have significantly limited his playing time and impact on the pitch during his tenure at Anfield.
Liverpool’s midfield underwent significant changes during the summer transfer window, with the additions of Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch, and Wataru Endo, enhancing the squad’s depth and quality.
The team’s impressive performances have propelled them to the top of the Premier League table, along with securing the Carabao Cup title after defeating Chelsea in the final.
Moreover, Liverpool’s progress to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup and the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League reflects their ambition on various fronts.
Despite Liverpool’s strengthened midfield options from new signings, Thiago Alcantara has struggled for regular playing time this season.
The Spanish midfielder has made only one appearance, as a substitute in the loss against Arsenal, before sustaining a muscle injury.
Amid speculation surrounding Liverpool’s potential transfer activity in the upcoming summer window, it appears increasingly probable that Alcantara will leave Anfield, as indicated by Neil Jones in his latest column for CaughtOffside. The club is unlikely to pursue midfield reinforcements given the current composition of their squad.
