A Middle East move is likely for Liverpool midfielder Thiago Alcantara at the end of the season.

Relevo says Liverpool have no plans to offer a new contract extension.

Their decision is mainly based on Thiago's injury problems, but also that he is among the best paid players in the squad.

Thiago earns €10m-a-year and the midfielder has no plans to retire.

However, Thiago wants to get fully healthy before making a decision on his next destination.

The most likely option is that Thiago is looking for a last big contract in Saudi Arabia or Qatar.
