Jurgen Klopp has revealed Liverpool have taken the decision for Thiago Alcantara to go under the knife in order to ensure his fitness for the start of pre-season.
Thiago won't play again this campaign due to an operation to cure a long-standing hip problem that kept him out for two months earlier this year.
The 32-year-old. who has been limited to 28 outings this term, has been hampered by a succession of injuries since arriving at Anfield from Bayern Munich in September 2020.
