Liverpool think Marcus Thuram is fairly priced at £70m as Inter Milan open to do business

TEAMtalk h🙈as reported that Liverpool boss Arne Slot is not ‘fully satisfied’ with how Nunez is doing and, as a result, could 🐎put him up for sale in 2025.

A J🎃anuary departure is considered ‘very difficult’, wꦰhile a summer move is ‘possible’, with Liverpool now assessing possible alternatives in June.

While Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak is appreciated by Liverpool, his price request is ‘considered very high’.

However, Inter Milan’s Marcus Thuram is deemed🐭 to be ‘above all’ on the Liverp🙈ool wish-list.

Thuram𝕴 has a release cla𓂃use of €85million (£70million) which is not only ‘definitely less’ than what Newcastle are asking for Isak, but it’s said to be deemed ‘fait market value’ by Liverpool.

Inter, despite being very happy with Thuram, ‘are always open to evaluating opera♚tions with a ꦇstrong capital gain and would also negotiate a figure close to the value of the clause.’
