Liverpool Explore Move for £43m‑Rated Khephren Thuram

Italian reports say Juventus want to sell the 25‑year‑old to raise cash for squad reinvestment.

Overview

  • Reports published Sunday, July 5, 2026, say Liverpool are among several clubs interested in signing Khephren Thuram from Juventus.
  • Tuttosport and other Italian outlets report Juventus have set an asking price of about £43 million (€50m) and are open to offers.
  • Sources name competition from Manchester United, Newcastle, Nottingham Forest, Sunderland and French and Turkish clubs, though Thuram is reportedly not keen on moves to Turkey.
  • Thuram joined Juventus in 2024–25, earned Serie A Team of the Season recognition earlier in his spell and is valued for his physicality and progressive passing despite a dip in goal contributions last season.
  • Juventus are said to be eyeing Franck Kessie as a possible replacement, and any sale could fund further signings as clubs jockey in a fast-moving summer transfer market.
