Bayern München coach Hansi Flick seems to have given up hope that Thiago Alcantara will stay at the club.

With one year left on his deal with the Bavarians, Thiago has been heavily linked with a move away from Allianz Arena, and Flick believes the Spanish midfield maestro has made the decision to take on a new task somewhere else.

"I assume he will leave. We were completely focused on the Champions League, and his contract wasn't an issue in the past few weeks. We haven't had another conversation now, but I think his decision has been made," Flick told Sport Bild.

The 29-year-old has mainly been linked with Liverpool and Manchester United.
