VIDEO: Thiago Alcantara releases motivational clip of him battling injury

Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara was the hottest property in European football, not too long ago. After a protracted transfer saga involving Manchester United, the ex-Barca man eventually joined Bayern Munich in summer 2013.

It got the Bavarians excited, especially after his performances for Spain U21 at the Euro U21 Championships that very same summer. But soon after his arrival, the Spaniard succumbed to a series of injuries, before suffering a severe one in 2014, which ruled him out for almost a year.

Thiago eventually made his return in April 2015, much to his joy and to the fans delight as well. He is continuously recovering his form as of now, but the former Barcelona fan proved exactly how difficult it can be to recover from major footballing injuries, through an exclusive documentary that was released yesterday.

In the first part of this documentary, Thiago showcases how he battled through tough times with the support of his family, friends and teammates. Tear-jerking stuff!
