While PSG seemed close to convincing Marcus Thuram to join PSG, Lilian Thuram reportedly convinced her son to join Inter Milan.
PSG’s summer was particularly eventful. Whether in the direction of departures and arrivals. Because while the French champions were pushing Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, Neymar and even Marco Verratti towards the exit, the Parisian leaders were working in all directions to find their successors. With a certain success since Milan Skriniar, Gonçalo Ramos, Ousmane Dembélé, Lucas Hernandez Manuel Ugarte, Randal Kolo Muani, Marco Asensio and Kang-In Lee have arrived in the capital.
While he seemed threatened, Luis Campos scored points and emerged from this summer reinforced. The capital club has nevertheless suffered some failures, first and foremost that in the Marcus Thuram case. At the end of his contract at Borussia Mönchengladbach, the former Sochalian had in fact been made a priority by the Parisian sports advisor. And well helped by Kylian Mbappé, who had lobbied his teammate in the French team, the Portuguese leader believed he had achieved his goals, the native of Turin seeming convinced by the Parisian project.
However, the French striker finally turned his back on PSG to favor Inter Milan. And to believe the Gazzetta dello Sport, his father would not have had anything to do with this change of heart. While his son was about to accept the offer from the Rouge et Bleu, Lilian Thuram, who had at the time signed in Paris before being diagnosed with a heart problem, would have convinced him not to join the champions of France. And given his great start to the season, with 4 goals and 5 assists in 10 matches, Marcus Thuram should not regret his choice.
