Juventus have set an asking price of €50 million (£42.86 million) for midfielder Khephren Thuram, who is attracting interest from Manchester United, Liverpool, and Nottingham Forest, according to reports in Italy.
The 25-year-old France international joined Juventus from Nice in the summer of 2024 for £16.9 million and has been a key player for the Turin club, making 96 appearances in two seasons and scoring nine goals. Despite his regular playing time, Juventus are now open to selling him this summer.
Thuram's Background and Interest
Thuram, the son of legendary France defender Lilian Thuram, has won four caps for France under Didier Deschamps but missed out on the squad for the 2026 World Cup. He has long been on Liverpool's radar, with the Reds heavily linked with a move for him in 2023 when he was still at Nice. Manchester United also showed interest three years ago, but no deal materialised.
Italian outlet TuttoSport reports that Juventus now consider Thuram sellable, having previously deemed him unsellable. The €50 million asking price has alerted Premier League clubs, with Nottingham Forest also expressing interest.
Juventus Eyeing Replacement
Juventus are reportedly looking to bring in free agent Frank Kessie, the Ivory Coast midfielder who left Saudi side Al-Ahli. Kessie has been touting himself as an ideal signing. Speaking about the potential move, Kessie said: 'I did see the talk about Juventus. I am focused only on the World Cup, but I will just say one thing: I would be a great signing. I’m in good shape, I’m playing at the World Cup, and above all I am a free agent, so what more could you ask for? This is why so many clubs want me, and they are right!' He added: 'My agent is working on it, we’re receiving a lot of calls, and that’s to be expected. I too would sign me at these conditions, both physically and financially!'
The development comes as Manchester United and Liverpool continue to strengthen their midfield options. Thuram's versatility and experience in Serie A make him an attractive prospect for Premier League clubs.
