He is Liverpool's best player, but Klopp no longer wants him in the team and will have a sad exit

Thiago Alcantara's future at Liverpool appears to be in jeopardy as the club have no plans to offer him a new contract and are willing to risk losing him for free at the end of his contract in 2024. According to reports from Goal, Liverpool have no intention of tabling a contract extension for the 32-year-old Spanish midfielder. Thiago joined Liverpool in September 2020 from Bayern Munich, signing a four-year contract. Although he has been a key presence in the team under Jürgen Klopp, injuries have affected his performances during the 2022/23 season, limiting his involvement in matches.

Klopp fielded Thiago in just 28 of Liverpool's 52 games in all competitions last season, and the player only started in 23 of those games. He also managed just one assist and failed to score a goal. Hip injuries and surgery in May have been obstacles to his continuity on the pitch. Despite Thiago's physical problems, Klopp believes the player remains an important part of the team's plans when fully fit. However, Liverpool appear willing to take the risk of losing him in 2024 without getting any financial compensation for his transfer.

The 2022/23 season started promisingly for Thiago, excelling in the Community Shield match against Manchester City at Wembley. His technical quality was praised by many pundits, but injuries thwarted his progression throughout the season.

Star farewell

As the 2023/24 season approaches, Thiago faces uncertainty over his future at Anfield. Although he remains a valuable player for Klopp when fit, injuries have raised doubts about his ability to stay fit consistently. Liverpool have decided not to offer Thiago a new contract for the time being, leaving the player in a challenging position as he prepares to face a crucial season in his career.
