Arsenal has shown interest in acquiring Khephren Thuram, the midfielder from OGC Nice, ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window, as reported by TuttoMercatoWeb. Manchester United and Juventus have also indicated their desire to secure the services of the French international. Despite previous bids being rejected by Nice, the Ligue 1 club is now prepared to sell him when the transfer market reopens.
The Gunners are seeking to bolster their midfield options, especially with uncertainty surrounding Thomas Partey’s future at the club. While Thuram still has room for development, his potential has attracted the attention of Juventus and Manchester United.
Nice intends to command a significant fee for one of their key players, while Arsenal, having refrained from making deals last month, will have the financial means to pursue transfers once again this summer.
In their quest to become consistent title contenders and contenders for major trophies, Arsenal acknowledges the need to strengthen their squad further. Adding a player of Thuram’s caliber could prove immensely beneficial to their aspirations.
