Liverpool once secured the services of a highly skilled midfielder at a reasonably favorable price – Thiago Alcantara.
Thiago Alcantara joined Liverpool in the summer of 2020. Recently, the former Bayern Munich midfielder unveiled two key figures who significantly influenced his choice to join the Anfield outfit:

“Liverpool was an exceptional team. They played top-class football, and the team’s level improved consistently, reaching the highest echelons of the sport.
However, what weighed equally on my decision was the city’s appeal and the quality of life it offered. How is the city? What are the places to go? What are the people like here?
Individuals like Philippe Coutinho and Xabi Alonso, they played a pivotal role in my final decision to join Liverpool instead of opting for Manchester United. That was truly fantastic.”
Clearly, with the advice and influence of the 32-year-old midfielder, Liverpool’s strength received a considerable boost. Nevertheless, Thiago has had a recurring issue with injuries since his arrival at Anfield.
Persistent injuries have posed challenges for Thiago’s career since joining Liverpool.

Addressing this, Coach Klopp stated, “If there is any impact, I assure you that no one will bear the negative aspects of it. This means that no one has to leave. Thiago remains an integral part of our squad.”
