Man Utd & Liverpool ready serious transfer move for star whose value has doubled in two years | OneFootball

Manchester United and Liverpool are reportedly both preparing a serious effort to sign Juventus central midfielder Khephren Thuram.

The France international has impressed during his time in Serie A, and this is not the first time we’ve seen transfer rumours about him possibly moving to the Premier League.

Thuram has also recently been linked with Man Utd and Liverpool by Calciomercato, and there’s now been a further update from Tutto Juve, as cited and translated by Sport Witness.

Their report states that Thuram joined Juventus for €20m but is now valued at around €40m, showing just how much he’s improved during his time in Turin.

Khephren Thuram the latest midfielder linked with Manchester United

Thuram could be a good option for United, and he’s far from the only name on their list, with Manchester World also claiming that big names like Elliot Anderson, Adam Wharton, and Carlos Baleba are also being looked at.

Thuram doesn’t have Premier League experience, which might count against him, but he’s shown plenty of promise throughout his career so far, so could be worth a punt.

Liverpool don’t look as much in need of a midfielder signing of that profile, but we’ve given Thuram to MUFC the following score with our Transfer Fit rating system…

Thuram gets a 15/25, which is a slightly higher-medium score – he ticks a lot of boxes but isn’t the most outstanding player out there right now.

United need a midfielder, though, and Thuram would probably be a lot cheaper than some of the other names they’ve been linked with.

The 25-year-old has a decent amount of experience, which is useful, but at the same time he also seems unlikely to improve much at this phase in his career.
