Liverpool Leading the Race to Sign Talented Midfielder
Liverpool has made notable improvements in their midfield with summer signings, addressing a key area of need. However, recent reports suggest that the club is still in the market for midfield reinforcements and is currently at the forefront in the pursuit of a player previously linked with Real Madrid.
While Real Madrid boasts one of Europe’s finest midfields, uncertainty surrounds the futures of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric, and Dani Ceballos is reportedly linked with a move to Aston Villa. This suggests that Real Madrid might need to bolster their midfield sooner than expected.
Khephren Thuram is a midfielder who has previously been linked with Real Madrid, and Liverpool appears to be the frontrunner in the race for his signature, as per Tutto Juve. The French international has also garnered interest from other top clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain, Borussia Dortmund, Manchester City, Juventus, and Newcastle United. It is anticipated that acquiring Thuram’s services could require a transfer fee of at least €40 million.
At just 22 years of age, Thuram has already amassed nearly 150 appearances for OGC Nice and has earned a place in the French national team. He is widely regarded as one of the top midfield talents in Ligue 1, making him a coveted prospect for numerous clubs, including Liverpool and Real Madrid.
