While Liverpool have been phenomenal this season, there could be some space in the midfield for a top class playmaker who can help them control the game.
Midfielders like Henderson, Keita and Wijnaldum all do a great job and fit perfectly into the system, but they are more about energy than quality at the highest level.

He openly admits that Thiago’s time at Bayern might be coming to an end, before adding that the Spaniard is looking for a new challenge.
It’s worth saying that there’s nothing official to say an exit has been agreed, but all signs are starting to point towards a Liverpool transfer this summer.
