Thiago has months without playing and yet is paid more than Trent Alexander Arnold and Alisson

When he arrived on Merseyside, Thiago Alcántara was considered the best player in the world in his position, as he was a player who contributed a lot to his team with his excellent technique, as well as being a player with an ease of dribbling and yet a very safe player. So his salary certainly deserved to be one of the best in the team.

Thiago did not disappoint at any time and during his first few months at Anfield, he made it clear that his quality was unique in the world. However, injuries have hampered him throughout his career, and at Liverpool it was no different, as he was never able to be as consistent as he would have liked due to various injuries. Despite this his salary has not been affected and has been maintained.

So the 32-year-old Alcántara, who has not played since April, has the third highest salary at the club, earning €10.4 billion, behind only Virgil Van Dijk who earns €11.44 billion and is the second highest paid in the team, while Pharaoh Mohamed Salah is the highest paid player in the team and earns €18.2 billion a year, according to Capology.com.

This undoubtedly generates a lot of indignation, as Thiago has not played for 9 months and it is not yet known when he will play again, yet he earns much more than Alisson Becker, the Brazilian being the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment. He also earns €1.4 billion more than Trent Alexander Arnold, who is currently the best right-back in the world, and both TAA and Becker are team leaders who are key players for Liverpool in the first place.

Change is imminent for Thiago, both in salary and city

This season could be a rare one for Alcántara, because if the Reds continue like this and if they can win the Premier League, they will give Thiago the opportunity to leave Anfield through the big door, as he would leave in the best way possible, by becoming champion. His departure is irremediable, as his injuries have not allowed him to play this season and his contract expires this summer and there is no chance of him staying longer on Merseyside.
