Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram at the end of the season.
The 27-year-old French International has been outstanding for Inter Milan since joining the club and he has helped them win the league title. Thuram has been in impressive form this season as well, scoring 14 goals and picking up eight assists in all competitions.
He could prove to be a quality acquisition for the north London club. They have signed Dominic Solanke for a substantial amount of money at the start of the season, but they need more support in the attack. The French International would be the ideal acquisition.
According to a report from Inter Live, the player is ‘at the top of the list’ for Spurs and he will cost around €80 million.
Tottenham have been following him from his days in the Bundesliga. It remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done at the end of the season. The report claims that the asking price is not insurmountable for a club with their resources.
Tottenham need to improve their squad to bounce back strongly and fight for major trophies. Thuram has proven himself in Germany and Italy. There is no doubt that he has the physical and technical attributes to do well in England as well. He could be an asset for Tottenham if they can get the deal done. The player is at the peak of his powers, and he could hit the ground running at his new club and transform them in the attack.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are looking at Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi as well. If they end up appointing the 48-year-old as their new manager, they could have a better chance of landing the French striker. Thuram could be keen on a reunion with the Italian manager at the London club.
