Liverpool’s new coach is working hard to build a competitive team. For this, he would have a French international in his sights.
After a disastrous season, Arne Slot was jumped by the Liverpool leaders. The latter brought in Andoni Iraola to whom they offered a two-year contract, until the summer of 2028. The Spanish technician wants to instill a new dynamic and find optimal intensity of play on the pitch.
To achieve his goals, the 43-year-old coach made a list of players which includes a French international. According to the revelations of Corriere dello Sport, Andoni Iraola wants to secure the services of Khéphren Thuram.
The Juventus defensive midfielder presents a complete profile, capable of playing in a double pivot, but also of projecting himself higher according to the needs of his team. He also has physical power and volume of play that appeal to the Reds.
The former Niçois had already been followed by the English club in 2023, when Jürgen Klopp was still on the Anfield bench. The youngest of the Thuram brothers arrived at the Old Lady in 2024 for around 20 million euros.
An unconditional Barça fan, I began my career as a journalist in 2015. I covered the 2017 CAN in Gabon and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, among others. As a commentator on football matches, I recently took a liking to the EuroLeague Basketball, where my favorite player is Facundo Campazzo.
