Liverpool agree £25m deal to sign Thiago Alcantara from Bayern Munich

Liverpool have reached an agreement with Bayern Munich for the signing of Thiago Alcantara.

The deal is reported to be a four-year contract worth least £20m, plus £5m in add-ons.

Thiago Alcantara moved to German Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich from Barcelona in 2013 and played in their Champions League final triumph over PSG last season.

The 29-year old Spain international will wear the number six shirt at Anfield.

He will be the Premier League champions' second signing this summer, after Greece left-back Kostas Tsimikas.

Apart from the Champions League, the former Barcelona player has won even consecutive Bundesliga titles, four German Cups, and the Club World Cup with Bayern.
