Paul Merson wrote for Sportskeeda‘s prediction this week,
“Thiago Alcantara has been incredibly unlucky with injuries, but I’d be shocked if he were to stay at Liverpool beyond this season.”
Merson Further wrote that
The Reds are unlikely to offload Alcantara in January because he’s still a top player when he’s fit, but at the end of the season.
