Following the departures of midfield trio James Milner, Naby Keita, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on free transfers, Liverpool are reportedly poised to lose another player on the same terms.
According to The Athletic, seasoned playmaker Thiago Alcantara will see out the remainder of his contract before leaving Anfield on a free transfer.
Thiago, 32, is definitely towards the end of his career, and with Jurgen Klopp rebuilding his midfield, it seems doubtful that the Spanish midfielder would be granted a better deal than the one he now has, which ends next summer.
As a result, with the former Bayern Munich and Barcelona midfielder ready to start his last year at Liverpool, there is a growing anticipation that the 32-year-old will be the next senior player to exit.
Thiago, who was bought for £22 million (TM) three years ago, has scored three goals and given six assists in 97 appearances.
