The 29-year-old Spaniard was instrumental in Bayern’s treble-winning season in 2019/20 and is revered as one of the best players in the world.

 

His contract situation was the reason behind Liverpool’s hesitance in spending £27m on the former Barcelona midfielder, but there’s no doubt that the Reds are signing a world-class player for a fair price.

There isn’t a team in world football that Thiago doesn’t start for and he’ll provide the creativity from deep that Klopp’s side sorely need.

But the Spaniard’s work ethic and willingness to defend are mighty impressive as well and he’ll no doubt slot seamlessly into Klopp’s midfield.

“He can also play ahead of someone holding, like Fabinho, and get forward a bit more and play the through balls and be more creative. He’s one of the best.”
