TOUCH 'N THIAGO

LIVERPOOL are sweating on the fitness of Thiago Alcantara for the Champions League Final.

The midfielder is a doubt after picking up an Achilles injury against Wolves on Sunday.

But he still has a chance of featuring in the Paris clash with Real Madrid on Saturday.

Thiago, 31, had a scan yesterday morning which showed the problem is not serious but with just four days to go until the final, it means he is in a desperate race to be fit.

Liverpool are hoping to end a remarkable season with a seventh European Cup success after also winning the Carabao Cup and FA Cup.

But they must put their Premier League heartache behind them quickly as they prepare to face the Spanish champions.
