With so many summer starts at Liverpool and the result of a poor 2022/2023 season, Jurgen Klopp would be forgiven if he didn’t start the current season the way the Reds did.The midfield, in particular, had been depleted following the unexpected sale of captain Jordan Henderson, causing further problems for Germany.
Klopp therefore deserves a lot of credit for not only ensuring his side regained Premier League winning form during the lockout, but also keeping them at the top of the table as they approach key festive fixtures.One midfielder who has not achieved much during his time at the club is Thiago Alcantara, whose four-year contract expires at the end of this season. According to 90Min, the injury-prone 32-year-old is keen to prove he is worthy of a new contract.He reportedly turned down a lucrative offer from the Saudi Arabian Pro League. From the club’s perspective, it will be difficult to fulfill Thiago’s wish if he does not play an important role until the end of the season
However, the question had to be raised as to whether this was sufficient to justify proposing new conditions. Not to mention that he doesn’t replace a winning team, Thiago is only brought in when the current midfielders are injured or suspended.
