Efforts are being made to ensure that we’re at the very least not short of a starting number six, though even that pursuit now looks in doubt amid Chelsea’s reported hijack attempt for Romeo Lavia.
With the club almost stripped to the bone when it comes to experienced heads, it would be utterly unfathomable for decision-makers to okay yet another Saudi Arabian swoop for a key player.
On Thiago Alcantara’s side, until we hear any different, the situation is clear: he wants to remain a Liverpool player and see out his contract (expiring in 2024).
That’s not a situation we expect to change unless we opt to actively push the Spaniard out of the door to recoup some value.
We surely wouldn’t be quite so foolish?
