Liverpool are ‘unlikely’ to do a deal for Thiago Alcantara, according to The Times.
Recent reports have suggested that Thiago is now on the verge of a move to Liverpool.
However, Paul Joyce of the Times claims that the chances are that Liverpool won’t complete a deal for the Spanish midfielder.
That may leave many supporters at Anfield disappointed, as the potential arrival of Thiago has proven exciting.
The Bayern Munich is hugely talented on the ball, and he could have added creativity to the Reds’ midfield options.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have dominated the Premier League this season, but there is a feeling that the addition of a playmaking midfielder could make them even stronger.
Thiago could take Georginio Wijnaldum’s place in Liverpool’s starting line-up.
But it seems that the Reds may be looking elsewhere, as Joyce doesn’t feel that the transfer is likely to happen – even after Klopp admitted his admiration for the 29-year-old yesterday.
