Ex-Barcelona star wants to return to Barcelona

1 minute

Bayern Munich’s midfield star Thiago who left Barcelona in 2013 wants to move back to Barcelona. According to the Express who cite Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivuto as the source, Thiago is interested in moving back to the Camp Nou. Barcelona might turn their full attention to Thiago if they fail to land Liverpool’s Coutinho. According to the report, currently Coutinho remains the priority.

Both Thiago and Coutinho are cup-tied and won’t be able to play the Champions League this season if they move clubs. But Barcelona’ pursuit of a January transfer shows that Valverde is planning for the long term. With the World Cup in the summer, there is a chance that a player has some decent performances with his national teams and his transfer fee increases dramatically. Also, if the transfer fee negotiations start after the World Cup, the player will miss pre-season with his new club. With all this in mind, Barcelona look like they are going all out for a midfielder in this window.
