Transfer race heats up as Juventus midfielder Thuram becomes prime target
The summer window is buzzing as Premier League giants look to bolster their midfield with a blend of bite and influence.
France’s Khephren Thuram, 25, who arrived at Juventus from Nice in 2024, has delivered a steady season with 35 appearances, two goals and four assists, underscoring his all-around contribution.
According to Caught Offside, Liverpool and Manchester United are seriously pursuing him, with the Reds seen as a potential replacement for Casemiro during a rebuilding phase in the middle of the park.
Arsenal are also monitoring developments as Juventus’ contract runs through June 2029.
Reportedly, an initial offer of about €45 million plus add-ons has been tabled, but Juventus values the player at between €65 million and €75 million with bonuses, deeming him a cornerstone of their long-term project.
Thuram’s future remains open, balancing club ambitions with Juventus’ tactical plans to retain their promising asset. If he moves, it could reshape English football’s midfield landscape.
And yes, if transfers were a game, Thuram would be the quiet one scoring goals while the drama watches from the touchline. Also, if the deal stalls, there’s always a free stadium tour to console the fans.
