Inter Milan are reportedly set to secure star striker Marcus Thuram with a new contract.
They plan to remove his massive £75m release clause. Consequently, the club aims to thwart interest from Premier League rivals.
Earlier, TVPlay.it linked the French international with Arsenal. Moreover, Calciomercato revealed that the Nerazzuri are moving quickly. In addition, Inter intends to erase the release clause from Thuram’s contract.
In a surprising twist, a United legend addressed old claims about his departure. He stated, “I CRIED in my car the day I left Man Utd!” His comments have sparked further debate about Old Trafford narratives.
Thuram is 27 years old and his future remains uncertain. Arsenal may still have a chance to sign him. Furthermore, the north London giants need to boost their attack after a frustrating season.

Some doubt if Thuram will be Arsenal’s first-choice striker. Nevertheless, the former Borussia Monchengladbach man could offer depth. In addition, his current form makes him an attractive option.
At Inter, Thuram has scored 14 goals and provided four assists this season. His impressive tally highlights his consistency and impact. Moreover, his numbers suggest he might outperform rivals like Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus.
While Havertz has performed well, centre-forward is not his natural role. In contrast, Jesus has struggled with injuries and limited production. Therefore, Thuram could offer a more reliable attacking solution.
Alternatively, Arsenal might consider a younger talent such as Benjamin Sesko, who is 21 years old. However, other clubs also show interest in Sesko. Hence, keeping Thuram as an option may benefit the Gunners in the long term.
