PSG and Man United are in a race to sign Marcus Thuram. The list of teams interested in signing Borussia Monchengladbach forward Marcus Thuram now includes Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). As they intensify their search for a forward, Manchester United has also been associated with the France international.
According to L’Equipe, Thuram is being pursued by clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, AC Milan, and Arsenal in addition to PSG. The Frenchman’s deal with Monchengladbach will end this summer, making him a free agent.
Thuram is rumored to be eager to compete for titles on all fronts, including the Champions League. This might exclude teams like Chelsea, who did not place in the top four of the Premier League this season.
Atletico Madrid and Inter are two other clubs that have recently expressed interest in the 25-year-old, according to the L’Equipe article. Even a long-term contract has been offered by the latter.
PSG is getting ready to sell players like Messi and Neymar. Their offensive will likely suffer greatly if they depart, and Thuram may be one of many players they recruit this summer to bolster it.
Manchester United is seeking a No. 9:
In April of this year, Erik Ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, acknowledged that they are looking for a prolific striker. His only two choices for striking at the moment are Anthony Martial and Wout Weghorst, neither of whom are long-term solutions to the problem.
According to Ten Hag, who spoke to Sky Sports, “Everyone is different, obviously, but for a striker, the main thing is to score goals by any method, that is so far ahead of anything else.”
“We need a striker who scores goals because our team can put balls in the box; therefore, a striker who can finish is necessary. We have to create a new future, and we need a striker who not only scores goals but also makes a significant contribution through excellent play-linking and pushing,” he continued.
While Weghorst’s loan period ends after this season, Martial has experienced ongoing injury problems ever since joining the team. According to reports, the Frenchman may go this summer.
