Thiago is made of glass, here are all the injuries he's had at Liverpool

While some Liverpool players are severely criticised for their overall performance on the pitch, some others are bombarded from another angle, such as injuries, with Spanish midfielder Thiago Alcántara fitting into this category perfectly. On several occasions he has been overtaken by the limitations of his body and has had to be dropped from the team and miss important games, as will happen this Monday when the Reds visit Everton.

While no one can deny Alcántara's incredible ability to dominate the midfield and be a crucial factor during a match, all those virtues come crashing down when a medical report or his exit from the field assisted by club doctors indicates yet another injury in his career, extending his poor run of form this 2023 by having to partially withdraw from the team with a hip injury, a situation he experienced not so many years ago when he was still playing in Germany for Bayern Munich.

Since his arrival at Liverpool in the 2020-2021 campaign, the Spanish international midfielder has suffered a total of 10 injuries including this 2023 campaign, with the calf strain being one of the injuries that put him on rest and rehabilitation for the most days, missing almost 50 days for a total of 10 games, with this injury still below the one suffered in 2020 where the knee prevented him from participating in 16 games.

2022 was Alcantara's injury record

A hip injury, two hamstring problems, a knock and a hate infection are the Spanish midfielder's injury record for the 12 months of 2022, ending the year with an accumulated 50 games without playing for Liverpool due to those ailments. The surprising thing is that even with so many setbacks, Alcántara has registered a decrease in the number of games he has missed, as compared to the 23 in 2021-2022, he now has only seven so far, with the number of games he will miss due to this new resentment in his hip still to be added up.
