We should sign Thiago for January! – Klopp says Liverpool midfielder ´closer and closer´ to comeback
Jurgen Klopp says midfielder Thiago Alcantara is getting closer and closer to returning for Liverpool.
Thiago has missed two months of action since sustaining a knee injury in the Merseyside derby against Everton on October 17.
Having also had a spell out after testing positive for coronavirus, the 29-year-old has only played twice for Liverpool since arriving from Bayern Munich in a deal that could reach £25million.
Ahead of Saturday s away Premier League game with Crystal Palace, Klopp was asked if Thiago, who is back in individual training, was eager to return soon.
He is, he is, said Klopp. We already made jokes here; I said, I think we should sign Thiago for January!
He gets closer and closer and he is in a good way.
