Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher believes his former club will complete a deal for Thiago Alcantara.
The Spain international, 29, has been heavily linked with the Reds with just one year remaining on his contract with Bayern Munich.
“The only worry that might put Liverpool off is Thiago’s age – but I think the signing will still happen,” he told The Mirror.
“Liverpool have a few players in the squad around 28 or 29 and that’s why the deal will have to be on their terms – maybe nearer £20m.
“What Thiago does is add something different to what Liverpool have in midfield
“The midfielders all do a brilliant job but are quite similar. It would be nice to have someone who can control the game more. It would be nice if they had a bit extra technically.
“I think a move will probably happen towards the end of the window.”
