Thiago Alcântara to undergo season-ending surgery for hip issue

Liverpool’s Thiago Alcântara will miss the remainder of the season due to a minor hip operation. Despite only playing 96 minutes since his return in April, the Spain international is still suffering from the issue and it has been decided that surgery is the best course of action. Thiago will be absent for Liverpool’s upcoming matches against Fulham, Brentford, Leicester City, Aston Villa, and Southampton. This season has been challenging for Liverpool due to injuries to several key players, including Virgil van Dijk, Diogo Jota, and Luis Díaz. Nonetheless, they continue to persevere.
