Inter Milan Considers Selling Marcus Thuram for Huge Profit Amid Premier League Interest
Reports are emerging that Inter Milan could be prepared to part ways with Marcus Thuram, potentially generating a substantial profit. Premier League clubs Aston Villa and Newcastle United are reportedly keen on the French international, with his €85 million release clause not deterring their interest.
This isn't the first time speculation has surfaced regarding Thuram's future at San Siro potentially coming to an end after the current season.
Thuram's Recent Form Raises Questions at Inter
Sources indicate that Inter's patience with the forward may be wearing thin. While Thuram has contributed 12 goals and five assists in 36 competitive appearances this season, he has failed to score in his last eight matches. His dip in performance, particularly during the absence of the injured Lautaro Martinez, has reportedly caused frustration within the club.
The striker's release clause is set at €85 million and is active only during the month of July.
A move to a Premier League team appears more probable than a switch to the Saudi Pro League, especially considering he will turn 29 in August.
Any sale of Thuram would represent pure profit for Inter, as they signed him on a free transfer from Borussia Monchengladbach in the summer of 2023.
With two goals in 31 senior caps for France, his current form puts him at risk of being overlooked for the 2026 World Cup squad.
