Arsenal and Liverpool are among the clubs who have inquired about Khephren Thuram.
The 24-year-old French midfielder is highly rated across Europe and it is no surprise that top teams love him. Clubs such as Chelsea and Tottenham are also following the midfielder. However, Juventus does not want to approve his departure and labels him as untouchable.
Graeme Bailey claims on TBR”Now Comolli, together with Yildiz, believes he has something special, and he is getting calls – we know that, but they have no interest in letting either of these two go, they are both considered ‘untouchable’ by Juve at the moment.”
Liverpool need Khephren Thuram
Thuram is a talented player with a bright future, and he could be an excellent signing for Arsenal and Liverpool. He will add control, physicality and defensive coverage in the middle of the park.
Liverpool could certainly use someone like him. They have been too dependent on Ryan Gravenberch and Nederland International could use some support. The player was overused last season and more depth in that part of the pitch would be ideal.
Thuram averaged 1.7 tackles, 5.1 duels won and 4.2 recoveries per 90 minutes in Serie A last season. He could be the ideal signing for Liverpool if they manage to get the deal done. However, the Italian team does not want to approve his departure and the Premier League champions will have to come up with an exceptional offer to convince them.
Liverpool have been linked with Thuram in the past.
Arsenal move to Thuram?
Meanwhile, Arsenal have already added sufficient depth and quality in the middle of the park. It would be quite surprising if they decided to invest in the 24-year-old. They should try to add more quality on the wings. They are well stocked in the middle of the park and will need more advanced equipment in the future.
The French midfielder could be tempted to move to the Premier League and that would be an exciting opportunity for him. However, it is unlikely that the Italian club will make it easy for him to move on. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool and Arsenal decide to make a bid for him in the coming months.
