PSG to sign Marcus Thuram by the end of this month. According to reports, PSG is stepping up their efforts to sign Marcus Thuram, whose deal with Borussia Mönchengladbach expires at the end of this month. Although Arsenal and AC Milan are interested in the French player, he is leaning towards moving to Paris.
According to a report in L’Equipe, PSG is moving quickly during the transfer period and is getting close to making its third acquisition. While Marco Asensio is joining on a free transfer from Real Madrid, they are almost certain to sign Manuel Ugarte from Sporting Lisbon.
Both players, it seems, have undergone club-provided medical examinations and are awaiting the formal pronouncements. The Ligue 1 champions have started speaking with Thuram and are stepping up their efforts to entice him to Paris.
According to the source, center-back Milan Skriniar will also be introduced shortly; however, they must first wait until his Inter Milan contract expires. When the Italian team plays Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League final this weekend, the defender will have a crucial match.
Marcus Thuram, a PSG target, confirms his departure from Borussia Mönchengladbach:
Marcus Thuram, a target for PSG, has already said that he would not be renewing his contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach. The adaptable forward is looking for a new challenge and has started speaking with numerous teams about his future.
BILD reported that Arsenal and Liverpool were interested in the Frenchman, and Sky Italia and CalcioMercato said that AC Milan was monitoring his position. Thuram is inching closer to a transfer to PSG, but the three clubs are currently concentrating on other things.
Thuram said the following to Mönchengladbach’s official website: “The previous four years have been terrific for me individually. I started playing here when I was a young player, and I’ve grown a lot. It was incredible to fight with Borussia in the Champions League and to earn a spot on the national team by putting up strong performances. I owe this club a great deal, and I’ll always remember what they did for me. I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for Borussia.
The PSG target played in 30 Bundesliga games this season, contributing to six assists and 13 goals. He also scored three goals against Oberachern in the DFB Pokal.
Thuram contributed two assists despite being a substitute in all five of his games for the France team that advanced to the FIFA World Cup final.
