EPL: Didi Hamann names most overrated player in European football

Liverpool legend Didi Hamann has named Thiago Alcantara as one of the most overrated players in European football.

Hamann fails to understand the hype surrounding Alcantara, adding that the 32-year-old is just a decent player.

Speaking about the Spanish midfielder, Hamann said (via talkSPORT): “He is the most overrated player in European football.

“When things are going well and you have a lot of possession, he is a good player, but when it is time to put things in their place and take control, he doesn’t.

“I don’t understand the hype that is given to him. He is a decent player, not a great player, as many people have said.”

Alcantara joined Premier League giants Liverpool from Bayern Munich in 2020.
