The Anfield legend believes the Reds will sign the Spanish international “on his terms,” with a play to be made at the end of the summer window.
Liverpool will make a deal for Thiago Alcantara “on his terms,” says Jamie Carragher, and the Reds legend is confident the midfielder will be removed from Bayern Munich in a deal worth around £ 20 million ($ 26 million). ).
The move to Anfield for the Spanish international continues to be discussed in the current transfer window.
Jurgen Klopp is said to have identified the 29-year-old as a prime target, and the Premier League champions are looking to add even more corruption and cunning to their engine room.
Thiago has been shy when it comes to future plans, as his contract with Bayern Germany has less than 12 months to go.
With no new terms agreed, a move elsewhere was expected to take place with a minimum of fuss.
However, a triple win in 2019-20 has shown that Bayern remains a force to be reckoned with in world play and Thiago has yet to make his way to the exits at the Allianz Arena.
Carragher believes Liverpool will put a deal in place at some point, possibly as the next deadline approaches, and is confident that a cut-price deal can be made for a player who does not fit the recent signing mold of the Reds.
“The only concern that could put Liverpool off is Thiago’s age, but I think the move will continue to happen,” said Anfield icon Carragher. The mirror.
“Liverpool have some players on the squad around 28 or 29 and that’s why the deal will have to be on their terms, maybe closer to £ 20 million.
“What Thiago does is add something different to what Liverpool has in midfield.
“The midfielders do a brilliant job but they are quite similar. It would be nice to have someone who can control the game more. It would be nice if they had a little more technique.
“I think there will probably be movement towards the end of the window.”
Thiago’s latest comments on his plans suggest that Liverpool will have to be patient in their search for the former Barcelona star, and the elegant playmaker told reporters when asked about his future at Bayern: “ I haven’t told anyone I’m leaving.
“Every year you put me in a different club.”
