Liverpool sent Harry Kane transfer message as fans spot what Thiago did against Burnley

Here is our Liverpool morning digest for Thursday, May 20.

Liverpool sent Harry Kane message

Jamie Redknapp has urged his former club Liverpool to go out and sign Harry Kane from Tottenham in the summer.

According to Sky Sports , Kane has asked Spurs once again to leave the club at the end of the season, but that doesn't appear to be the full story.

Our sister title, football.london, are reporting that the 27-year-old has not directly informed Tottenham of his desire to leave, but his frustration with the lack of trophies during his time there means that he will consider a new challenge this summer.

The England captain has been heavily linked with Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea - with Sky Sports claiming his preference is to stay in the Premier League.

Liverpool , meanwhile, have not really been linked with Kane, but ex-Reds midfielder Redknapp wants his former club to make a move for the prolific striker.

Other rumours suggest Man City want to sign Kane in the summer and 'plan to hold talks' with the Spurs talisman.

However, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy will not allow these negotiations to be straightforward for the newly-crowned Premier League champions and will demand an extortionate fee for Kane's services.

Thiago skill against Burnley impresses fans

Liverpool supporters spotted what Thiago Alcantara did in the first-half against Burnley on Wednesday evening.

In a massive match for the Reds in Lancashire, it was a rather nervous start for the visiting team, who needed maximum points to ensure they were in pole position to secure a top four spot ahead of the final round of fixtures at the weekend.

Jurgen Klopp kept his faith with Thiago for the game, who came to Anfield with sky-high expectations after a glistening career at the likes of Barcelona Bayern Munich.

The 30-year-old Spanish midfielder suffered a slow start to life on Merseyside, though, which was due to a host of complicated factors.

On his Merseyside derby debut, Thiago picked up an injury after a challenge from Everton forward Richarlison in a 2-2 draw at Goodison Park.

The Spaniard didn't feature again for Liverpool until over two months later, where he came on in the second-half in a goalless draw against Newcastle United.

Now, though, Thiago is starting to look like the player Reds supporters thought they were getting when he arrived from the Bundesliga last summer.

In Liverpool's away clash against Burnley, Thiago flicked the ball past Dwight McNeil, which went round the Clarets star, with the Reds midfielder picking up the ball on the other side.
