Liverpool are desperately in need of a midfielder and Jurgen Klopp has been told by the club that he needs to raise funds if he truly wants to bring Bayern Munich’s Thiago to Anfield.
Club legend Jamie Carragher has disclosed that the reigning Premier League champions have been told to bring £27million for Thiago by Bayern Munich.
Recall that Klopp had to let Dejan Lovren leave the club before he could prosecute the signing of left-back Konstantinos Tsimikas for £11.75m.
"Liverpool have got three or four players in the squad they are looking to move on,” Carragher started.
"I think the huge clamour for Thiago is a little bit disrespectful to Liverpool's current midfield three."
