Thiago Alcântara do Nascimento (Template:Lang-es; born 11 April 1991),[1] simply known as Thiago (Spanish: [ˈtjaɣo]; Portuguese: [tʃiˈaɡu]),[3][4] is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Premier League club Liverpool and the Spain national team.

Born in Italy as the eldest child of former player Mazinho, Thiago joined Barcelona aged 14, and made his first team debut in 2009. After winning honours including four La Liga titles, the UEFA Champions League and the FIFA Club World Cup for Barcelona, he was signed by Bayern Munich for €25 million in 2013. In Germany, Thiago won 16 trophies, including the Bundesliga seven times, and the UEFA Champions League as part of a continental treble. In 2020, he signed for Liverpool in a transfer worth an initial £20 million.

After helping Spain to European Championships at under-19 and under-21 levels, Thiago made his full international debut in 2011. He was part of the provisional squad for Spain in the 2014 World Cup but withdrew due to a knee injury. Thiago was selected for UEFA Euro 2016 and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Club career

Early career

Thiago was born in San Pietro Vernotico, Italy, when his father Mazinho (player for the Brazilian national team from 1989 to 1994) was playing for nearby U.S. Lecce. He started at the lower levels of Flamengo in Brazil, and, at the age of five, moved to Spain with his father, and started playing with Galician team Ureca in Nigrán. In 2001, he played with Kelme CF when his father played for Elche CF.[5][6] He returned to Flamengo aged 10 and, in 2005, once again moved back to Spain, signing with FC Barcelona, where his cousin Marielo Dos Santos was also playing.[7]

Barcelona

On 17 May 2009, aged 18, Thiago made his debut for the first team when he came on as a substitute for Eiður Guðjohnsen in the 74th minute at RCD Mallorca for his only appearance of the season.[8] Barcelona, having already won the league, lost 1–2.[9]

On 20 February 2010, after coming on as a substitute for Yaya Touré in the 76th minute, Thiago scored his first goal for Barcelona in a 4–0 home win against Racing de Santander.[10] He scored his third goal against Real Sociedad in a start on 29 April, although Barcelona lost 2–1.[11] He ended the 2010–11 season with 17 games, three goals, and three assists, and was an unused substitute as Barcelona won the 2011 UEFA Champions League Final against Manchester United at Wembley Stadium.[12]

Thiago started the 2011–12 season with the first leg of the Spanish Supercopa match against rivals Real Madrid, being substituted for Xavi after 58 minutes, and was an unused substitute as they defeated FC Porto for the 2011 UEFA Super Cup. He then scored in Barcelona's first La Liga match of the season in a 5–0 home win against Villarreal CF.[13] On 18 December, he started as Barcelona won 4–0 in the Club World Cup Final at International Stadium Yokohama.[citation needed] Thiago also netted Barcelona's fifth in a 7–0 win against Rayo Vallecano on 29 April from a close-range header.[14]

Bayern Munich

2013–15: Debut season and injury

I spoke to club [sic] about my concept and told them why I want Thiago. He is the only player I want. It'll be him or no one.

— Pep Guardiola to the press prior to the signing.[15]

On 14 July 2013, Thiago signed a four-year deal with Bundesliga club Bayern Munich, for a €25 million fee.[16] Bayern would pay €20 million to Barcelona directly with the remainder being covered by the proceeds of a friendly to be played between the two teams at some point in the following four years and by Thiago foregoing some money owed to him by Barcelona.[17] The transfer came despite a new contract that Barcelona had given Thiago in 2011 which set his release clause at €90 million.[18] Barcelona failed to fulfil clauses in the contract relating to the amount of playing time that Thiago received, and as a result the player's buy-out clause dropped to €18m.[18] Bayern's new manager, Pep Guardiola, said before the transfer of Thiago to Bayern, "I spoke to the club and told them about my concept and told them why I want Thiago. He is the only player that I want. It will be him or no one."[19]

Thiago made his Bayern debut in a 4–2 defeat to rivals Borussia Dortmund in the 2013 DFL-Supercup on 27 July.[citation needed] He made his debut in the Bundesliga in a 0–1 win against Eintracht Frankfurt on 11 August 2013.[20]

On 21 December 2013, he scored his first competitive goal for Bayern Munich, in the 2013 FIFA Club World Cup Final against Raja Casablanca of Morocco, sealing the 2–0 win for the German club.[21] On 29 January 2014, he scored his first Bundesliga goal, the scissor-kicked winner in stoppage time against VfB Stuttgart which was voted the Goal of the Month.[22] He also had an assist to Claudio Pizarro for Bayern's first goal in the 2–1 win.[23] Four days later, in a match against Eintracht Frankfurt, he set a Bundesliga record with 185 touches of the ball.[24] On 23 February, in a 4–0 win over Hannover 96, Thiago scored his second and last goal of the Bundesliga season.[25] His season ended due to a knee ligament tear against 1899 Hoffenheim six days later,[26] although Bayern went on to win the league and cup. He finished the season with two goals in 16 Bundesliga matches,[27] two German Cup matches,[27] four Champions League matches,[27] a goal in two FIFA Club World Cup,[8] and an appearance in the German Super Cup.[8]

Thiago at training session in 2015

After over a year out injured, Thiago returned on 4 April 2015, replacing Philipp Lahm for the last 21 minutes of a 1–0 win at Borussia Dortmund.[28] Four days later, he again replaced Lahm in a DFB-Pokal quarter-final at Bayer Leverkusen, scoring the winning goal in the penalty shootout after a goalless draw.[29] On 15 April, he scored in the team's Champions League quarter-final first leg away to FC Porto, albeit in a 1–3 defeat.[30] Six days later, he headed in Juan Bernat's cross for the opening goal of a 6–1 rout to overturn the first leg deficit against Porto, helping Bayern advance to the Champions League semi-finals.[31] On 26 April, after VfL Wolfsburg lost to Borussia Mönchengladbach, Thiago won his second Bundesliga title for Bayern.[32] He finished the season with two goals in 13 appearances.[33]

2015–17: Domestic double and individual success

On 27 August 2015, Thiago signed a new four-year contract with Bayern.[34] On 10 February 2016, he contributed a goal in 3–0 win over VfL Bochum in the DFB-Pokal quarterfinal match.[35] He scored twice in a 5–0 home victory over Werder Bremen on 12 March.[36] On 17 March, Thiago scored a goal in a brilliant comeback against Juventus as his side came from 2–0 down to lead 4–2 victory in the Champions League round of sixteen tie.[37] He finished the season with four goals and seven assists.[38] In addition to playing in the German Super Cup,[8] Thiago scored two goals in 27 Bundesliga matches,[39] a goal in five German Cup matches,[39] and a goal in nine Champions League matches.[39]

Thiago started the 2016–17 season under new club manager Carlo Ancelotti by winning the 2016 DFL-Supercup with a 2–0 victory against his club's rival Borussia Dortmund on 15 August 2016.[40][41] On 21 September, he scored his first goal of the season in a 3–0 victory over Hertha BSC.[42] Thiago contributed one goal and one assist in a 3–0 victory over RB Leipzig and was named Man of the match on 22 December.[43] On 16 February 2017, he scored two goals and provided one assist as Bayern defeated Arsenal with a 5–1 victory in the first leg of the Champions League round of sixteen tie.[44] On 28 April, he signed a new four-year contract until 2021.[45] He scored nine goals and had nine assists throughout the season.[46]

2017–20: Consistent silverware, European treble

Thiago could not play his club's first competitive match of the season for an injury which was 2017 DFL-Supercup where Bayern won against Borussia Dortmund 5–4 on penalties on 6 August 2017.[47][48] On 26 October, he scored an equalizing goal against RB Leipzig to make it 1–1 and later Bayern went on to win the DFB-Pokal second round match 5–4 on penalties.[49] On 23 November, he was substituted in the 44th minute of the match as he suffered a serious muscle injury in his thigh in Bayern's 2–1 away victory over R.S.C. Anderlecht in the Champions League group stage match and was confirmed by his club manager Jupp Heynckes that he will be out for a long period of time.[50][51] Thiago was back in the starting lineup and made his first appearance since his injury in November in a 2–1 away victory over VfL Wolfsburg on 17 February 2018.[52][53] On 4 April, he scored a header which secured Bayern Munich a 2–1 away victory over Sevilla FC in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie.[54] He finished the season with seven goals in 31 appearances.[55]

On 12 August 2018, Thiago played the first competitive match of the season under the new club manager Niko Kovač and also scored a goal in a 5–0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt as Bayern won the 2018 DFL-Supercup.[56] On 18 May 2019, Thiago won his sixth consecutive Bundesliga title as Bayern finished two points above Dortmund with 78 points. A week later, Thiago won his third DFB-Pokal as Bayern defeated RB Leipzig 3–0 in the 2019 DFB-Pokal Final.[57] He finished the season with three goals in 42 appearances.

Amidst heavy media speculation linking him with a potential move to Liverpool,[58] Thiago played for Bayern in the Champions League quarter-final against his former team Barcelona, participating in an 8–2 demolition of the Catalan outfit.[59] Thiago started for Bayern in the 2020 Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain, playing 86 minutes before being substituted, as Bayern won their sixth Champions League, and completed a treble, having earlier clinched that season's Bundesliga and defeated Bayer Leverkusen in the DFB-Pokal final.[60][61][62]

Liverpool

On 18 September 2020, Liverpool announced the signing of Thiago on a long-term contract. The deal was worth £20 million, with the potential for a further £5m in add-ons.[63][64] Thiago made his debut for Liverpool on 20 September, coming off the bench at halftime as Liverpool won 2—0 against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.[65] With 75 successful passes Thiago had the most passes completed by a player in a half of Premier League football since Opta started producing passing statistics in 2003.[66]

Bayern Chief Executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said, "A young man who wanted to come back at the World Cup, and suddenly his dreams are burst. We will take care of him now and make sure he is fit at the start of the season."[72]
