Liverpool suffer huge injury blow ahead of Champions League final showdown with Real Madrid as disconsolate Thiago walks off with hamstring issue in final Premier League outing against Wolves

Thiago Alcantara will be given every chance to prove his fitness for the Champions League final on Saturday night after he suffered suspected hamstring damage.

The Spain midfielder, 31, has been a huge player for Liverpool in recent months and he was the reason they were able to get back into the game against Wolves, his glorious backheel flick creating the opportunity for Sadio Mane to equalise.

Bruno Lage’s well-drilled side had difficulty following Thiago into the pockets of space that he tried to inflict damage from.
