Thiago Alcantara, a midfield player for Liverpool, reportedly suffers a new injury after developing a muscle issue on Thursday.

Before entering the game in the 85th minute of Sunday's 3-1 loss for Liverpool at Arsenal, Thiago had been sidelined since April due to hip and hamstring problems.

After the match, the 32-year-old Spaniard is thought to have complained of soreness in his muscles, and he will now likely have to miss more time due to injury.

Thiago's contract expires at the end of this season, and given his fitness concerns, his future at Anfield is uncertain.
