Thiago Alcantara

[Xaviniesta]

Why would they need to get rid of Wijnaldum to get Thiago? They work great together imo.

I agree, he is a great midfielder.

there are rumours they are signing thiago because wijnaldum hasn't signed a contract renewal (he has 1 year left on his contract).

they already have fabinho and henderson who are guaranteed starters. keita, wijnaldum, and thiago fighting for the same spot would be mad

 

[Trafalgar]

wow they're getting rid of wijnaldum for thiago? not sure it's worth it. wijnaldum is clutch

Wijnaldum is a rotation player, Thiago will be a starter.

Maybe they will rotate more. Or want to have more options.

I would personally keep Wijnaldum who is also a great player same as Thiago. They are also different profiles. Adding Thiago makes Liverpool candidate for best midfield in the world imo.

He will go to Liverpool. Amazing.

 

[Vilarrubi]

Imagine having Liverpool’s team then adding a world class midfielder like Thiago. Class transfer policy.

Going to be straight pain to watch these 2 compete for CLs and rack them up while we sit back like clowns.

It's fine we'll get Pjanic on that retirement contract, visca barca sextlupe guaranteed

 

[Qqqq]

Liverpool are gonna love him.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Wijnaldum is almost certainly going to agree a pre-contract offer with you guys in January with Thiago doing likewise with us.

This is a scenario that Mel Reddy has suggested could play out and she is basically the most reliable LFC journalist out there. Mind this is a scenario rather than a guarantee of it happening. However it is quite logical when you think about it.

 

[Porque]

Supporting what AnfieldEd said, there is a rumour today in Netherlands (according to MD) that Wijnaldum is one of Koeman's requests.

Solid player but having another 30 year old player isn't what this club needs. And yes there have been rumours coming from Netherlands regarding Wijnaldum.

Solid? He is top 5 midfielder, 29 years old, and the type of player we desperately need. He has at least 3 more WC seasons in his legs.

we already have Pjanic. Wiljandum - Pjanic is another Raki-Vidal situation in a couple of years.

 

[messi2140]

Yes he is solid. Playing really well under Klopp doesn't mean he is top 5 midfielder in the world.

Man if he goes to Liverpool they will overhype him like crazy, EPL plus these Liverpool bandwagoners, the whole football social media is gonna be all about Thiago
