Former Liverpool midfielder Didi Hamann has claimed that Thiago Alcantara is “one of the most overrated players” in Europe.
The Reds signed Thiago from Bayern Munich in the summer of 2020 for an initial fee of £20million - plus £5m of potential add-ons. He has gone on to make 69 appearances for the club and win two major trophies along the way.
In the recent Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid, Thiago was a doubt going into the game, but managed to earn a start at the Stade de France. Despite some initial concerns during the war-up, the 31-year-old still managed to play 77 minutes before being withdrawn.
