He Paris Saint-Germain continues to work hard on preparing its squad for next season, with the aim of having the team practically closed before mid-July. These actions are carried out amid uncertainty about the future of Kylian Mbappé, who will decide at the end of July whether or not to exercise his unilateral renewal clause until 2025. In this context, the name that now appears as a possible reinforcement for the Parisian group is the one of Marcus Thuram.
The eldest of the two sons of the legendary soccer player Lilian Thuram will be released on June 30, after not having renewed his contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach. As reported by L’Équipe, the French international would be tempted by the PSG project, which offers him attractive economic conditions and the possibility of having regular minutes as a starter. It should be noted that the signing of him, in principle, would not prevent the arrival of Victor Osimhen, who is also considered to reinforce the Parisian attack.
Marcus Thuram, PSG’s new offensive target
However, Marcus Thuram has taken a brief period of reflection before announcing his next destination. In the last hours, PSG has accelerated the negotiations and has placed itself among the favorites to take over the striker’s services as a free agent, without having to pay any amount for a transfer, an operation similar to the one designed with Marco Asensio after his non-renewal with Real Madrid.
At this juncture, Kylian Mbappé, Marcus Thuram’s international teammate, is playing a decisive role in tipping the balance in PSG’s favour. The Bondy prodigy, whose future is intrinsically linked to the project designed by Luis Campos in the summer, has tried to persuade the striker to join the new Ligue 1 champion. Next week appears crucial to clarify the future of one of the most coveted players of the next transfer market.
In short, PSG continues to be active in the market in search of strengthening its offensive front, and the name of Marcus Thuram has emerged as a real possibility. With Mbappé playing a prominent role in the negotiations, the Parisian club hopes to secure the services of this talented striker on a free basis, thus adding a valuable piece to their squad for the challenges ahead in the coming season.
