While Bayern still have the Champions League to play for next month, Thiago's future is set to be resolved before then.
That's with the view that he will be fully integrated at his new club ahead of the new campaign.
Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge revealed yesterday that Thiago will leave the club but there have been no negotiations with Liverpool.
“He is a top boy on and off the pitch,” Rummenigge told Bild.

“We had serious negotiations with him and fulfilled all of his wishes. But it looks like he might want to do something new again at the end of his career.
“We have never had any contact with Liverpool. If he wants to do that, we have to deal with it.
“We don’t want to lose a player for free next year. I say that very clearly.”
Bayern boss Hansi Flick confirmed that Thiago will start tonight's match in Berlin as he looks to sign off with more silverware.
"I hope that he won’t leave," Flick said. "The surgery was not so long ago. But everything went as planned. He can play from the start tomorrow. He is 100 percent fit."
