Thiago Alcantara’s Net Worth in 2021 (estimate): €83 million
According to Sporting Free, Thiago Alcantara’s net worth in 2021 is €83 million, or £72 million. He is one of the highest-paid Premier League athletes this season with an annual salary of £10.4 million.
Thiago played for a number of clubs in Italy, Brazil, and Spain during his early youth career before eventually signing with FC Barcelona.
He made his senior debut with the Catalan club on May 17, 2009, at the age of 18. Barcelona was already declared the La Liga champions for that season when Thiago made his debut.
Thiago appeared in 100 matches for Barcelona in all competitions, and he scored 11 goals and provided 20 assists. Despite relatively subpar numbers, he was a major part of Barcelona’s multiple silverware during that time.
During his stint with Barca, the club won four La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey, two Supercopa de España, one UEFA Champions League, one UEFA Super Cup, and one FIFA Club World Cup.
After a successful time with Barcelona, Thiago was acquired by Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich for a fee of €25 million. He became a seasoned footballer during his time with Bayern as he won multiple team and individual accolades with the club.
Despite a good maiden season with the club, Thiago suffered a knee injury that limited him to only 16 Bundesliga matches that season. He returned on the latter part of the 2014-2015 season as he played in only 13 matches in all competitions.
On August 27. 2015, Thiago signed a new four-year with Bayern Munich, keeping him at the club until 2019.
Thiago continued his great performances for Bayern, and the club awarded him with another contract extension on April 28, 2017.
All in all, Thiago played for Bayern Munich until the end of the 2019-2020 season. In 235 matches in all competitions, he contributed 31 goals and dished out 38 assists.
On top of that, he had multiple accolades such as:
- 7x Bundesliga Champion
- 4x DFB-Pokal Winner
- 3x DFL-Supercup Winner
- 1x UEFA Champions League Winner
- 1x FIFA Club World Cup Champion
- Member of the 2020 UEFA Team of the Year
- Member of the 2020 FIFA FIFPro World11
- 2x Member of the Bundesliga Team of the Season
- 2016-2017 ESM Team of the Season
- 2019-2020 UEFA Champions League Squad of the Season
- 2020 IFFHS Men’s World Team
With only one year left on his contract, Liverpool swooped in and acquired Thiago for £20 million from Bayern Munich. He signed a four-year £41.6 million with the Reds.
Thiago made his Liverpool debut on September 20, 2021, as a half-time substitute as the Reds won 2-0 over Chelsea.
He suffered his setbacks in his first season with Liverpool as he contracted COVID-19 a few days after his debut with the club. And on October 17, 2020, Thiago suffered an injury towards the end of the game in their 2-2 draw against Merseyside rivals Everton.
The injury sidelined him for a couple of months, and he returned for their match against Newcastle United on December 30, 2021.
As of this writing, Thiago and Liverpool are working hard to win major silverware such as the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League.
As for his international career, he has been representing Spain since his under-16 days. Thiago made his senior debut during Spain’s friendly against Italy on August 10, 2011. He was then selected for Spain’s squad for UEFA Euro 2016, 2018 FIFA World Cup, and UEFA Euro 2020.
Thiago has made 46 appearances for the Spain national team and he has contributed 2 goals.
Thiago was a Nike athlete for most of his career. But in the summer of 2020, he joined Adidas. This is ironic since his current club, Liverpool just switched their sponsorship to Nike.
It seems that wherever Thiago goes, championships and silverware follow. So, it’s only safe to say that Liverpool is on the run for another Premier League and Champions League title run.
