When Pep Guardiola used the phrase “Thiago oder nichts,” it meant that Bayern Munich considered Thiago as a player they absolutely had to acquire.

Thiago made the move from FC Barcelona to Munich and enjoyed a successful spell with Bayern, winning seven consecutive Bundesliga titles and the Champions League. However, a unique set of circumstances allowed Liverpool FC to sign him for a bargain price of €30 million, and his time at Liverpool has not unfolded as many had hoped.

According to 90min, the 32-year-old midfielder’s future in England is uncertain as he is eager to establish himself in the team despite facing a series of unfortunate injuries. Discussions took place regarding an extension to his contract, which is set to expire in 2024. Additionally, offers from clubs in Turkey and Saudi Arabia have also been on the table.

Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp continues to hold Thiago in high regard. He expressed this sentiment during the summer, emphasizing Thiago’s unique qualities as a player. Klopp praised Thiago’s ability to read the game, exceptional technical skills, and his proficiency in both offensive and defensive aspects.

Regarding the possibility of a return to Bayern Munich for Thiago, it’s unclear at this point. Bayern’s midfield situation has evolved since Thiago’s departure, and it would ultimately depend on the club’s current needs and Thiago’s willingness to make such a move.
