Thiago Alcantara’s tenure at Liverpool has been marred by a series of unfortunate injuries, significantly reducing his playing time to a mere single appearance this season, as detailed by ‘Relevo.’ The prevailing pessimism surrounding the midfielder’s persistent fitness setbacks has raised doubts regarding his future with the club. Liverpool is hesitant to engage in contract renewal discussions, given his limited availability on the field.
As Thiago’s existing contract is scheduled to expire in 2025, the likelihood of an extension seems increasingly remote for the Spanish midfielder. Various factors, including his substantial salary and stiff competition from other midfielders like Mac Allister and Szobozslai, have compounded the obstacles facing Thiago in negotiating a new deal with Liverpool, who acquired him from Bayern Munich in 2020 with high hopes.
Despite his impressive background and extensive experience, Thiago’s impact on the pitch has been modest during his four-year spell in England, accumulating 98 appearances, with only 3 goals and 6 assists to his credit. These underwhelming statistics fall short of the expected influence he was anticipated to bring to Jurgen Klopp’s midfield strategy.
‘Relevo’ has also disclosed Thiago’s willingness to explore potential offers from the Saudi Arabian football league, hinting at a potentially lucrative opportunity for the midfielder as he approaches the twilight of his career before retirement.
Furthermore, destinations such as Qatar have emerged as potential contenders for Thiago’s next career move, although definitive offers have yet to materialize for the player at this juncture.
