Thiago is out of contract at the end of the season and it appears unlikely Liverpool will offer him a new deal as injuries have plagued his time at Anfield.

Thiago's previous Liverpool appearance was in their 2-1 Premier League win at West Ham last year. He joins Dominik Szoboszlai and forward Mohamed Salah in the Liverpool treatment room as Jurgen Klopp tries to navigate his way to potentially four trophies in his final season in charge.
