Juventus midfielder Khephren Thuram is attracting attention from two Premier League giants, as Liverpool are reportedly battling Manchester United with an asking price of €75m.

He is seen as the ideal replacement for Casemiro at Old Trafford, while the Reds want him to bring a more physical presence to their midfield.

Arsenal are also keeping a close eye on the situation, as his contract with Juventus is set to expire in June 2029.

While a proposal worth €45m plus add-ons was mentioned, Juve are far more likely to set the asking price at €65-75m including bonuses.
