Bayern Munich boss Flick opens up and tells Chelsea Thiago eyeing move to the Premier League
Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick has hinted that Chelsea target Thiago Alcantara could be on his way to the Premier League
There has been some shock reports circling the media over the past few weeks that Thiago is done in the Bundesliga and is keen to leave Bayern in the transfer widow, with reports suggesting that Liverpool are winning the race to sign the Brazilian star.

It is believed that Thiago is not happy with the contract offer that Bayern have reportedly placed on the table and now wants to leave the club this transfer window, with the Premier League in his sights.
He told Sport1: “I can understand when a player is concerned.
“Thiago played in Spain for FC Barcelona and in the Bundesliga for FC Bayern Munich.
“If he wants to try again in the Premier League now, I totally understand. But it would be a shame because Thiago gives our game that certain something.
“That’s why I would like, as a coach, to have him on the team for the next few years, but that’s life. It would go on.”
Thiago is world class and with Willian seemingly leaving the club, he could be the ideal signing for the club?
