Liverpool Revive Interest in Khéphren Thuram as Juventus Open Sale
Liverpool’s interest in Khéphren Thuram has flickered back into life. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Juventus midfielder is once again on the Anfield radar, years after a move that once felt inevitable quietly fell apart.
Back in the latter stages of Jürgen Klopp’s reign, Liverpool were strongly positioned to bring the French international to Merseyside from OGC Nice. The profile fit was obvious: athletic, progressive, comfortable carrying the ball through midfield. The expectation was that Thuram would be part of the next Liverpool engine room.
Then the trail went cold. Thuram chose Turin, Liverpool pivoted to other targets, and the supposed long-term match between player and club never materialised. No public fallout, no dramatic twist – just a transfer that slipped away without a clear explanation.
Now the story is back.
Juventus are increasingly open to a sale this summer, and that changes the landscape. The Italian club, reshaping their squad and finances, look ready to listen to offers, and that has drawn Premier League attention on multiple fronts.
Liverpool are not alone in the chase. Manchester United have joined the conversation, sensing an opportunity to add a powerful, versatile midfielder in his mid-twenties. Nottingham Forest, too, are monitoring the situation, hoping to muscle in on a market that usually belongs to the division’s heavyweights.
The dynamic is simple: a 25-year-old France international, under contract at a club willing to sell, with three English sides circling. The question is who moves first, and how hard.
For Liverpool, Thuram represents a chance to revisit unfinished business in a new era, this time under different leadership but with a familiar need: fresh legs and presence in the middle of the pitch. For Juventus, he is a saleable asset at a pivotal point in the window.
The first bid will tell everyone how serious this revival really is.
