Yesterday, the idea that Liverpool would wait until January to sign Thiago Alcantara in a pre-contract deal before bringing him in for free next summer, or in January at a greatly reduced price, was introduced into the current transfer saga.
Today, the latest is that Liverpool has made at least one firm offer, and perhaps even a formal offer, of 25 million euros for the 29-year-old Spaniard, only because Bayern have rejected it as they stick to their valuation of euros. 30M for the veteran midfield star.
At least that’s according to Constantin eckner, a Berlin-based journalist working for The BBC, Times and ESPN, whose claim for a 25 million euro offer has gained wide acceptance in England. It is said that the personal terms were agreed between clubs.
It is not a claim that seems to be especially advancing in the saga, but it is another source that claims that there are ongoing talks between clubs, the valuation gap is significant but not monumental, and that a contract has been agreed in principle.
Meanwhile, Liverpool midfielder Gini Wijnaldum remains linked to Barcelona this week, with media in Spain claiming that the Catalans would want to pay just € 15 million for a player of the same age and in the same contractual situation as Thiago.
