What a difference a year makes. Borussia Monchengladbach’s 25-year-old star Marcus Thuram was frozen out under their previous coach Adi Hutter but is now enjoying his game more than ever. As soon as Daniel Farke took over at Borussia Park, the son of former French international Lilian Thuram returned to showing all of his talents – and has found his way into Bayern’s notebooks!Speaking to the French daily L’Equipe, Thuram admitted that he’s aware of the biggest German club’s interest.”I don’t think about it. Bayern is a big club, but I try to go about my business and take it day by day.”questo gol in italia lo fa solo Marcus Thuram#WelcomeThuram @inter pic.twitter.com/J6vpyJykIG— il thuramiano (@ilfuEl7) October 31, 2022 Thuram has scored eight times in twelve games this season and provided assists for two more goals. What’s giving Borussia Monchengladbach even more headaches is that Thuram’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season. While his teammates Jonas Hofmann and Alassane Plea both signed new deals in early August, Thuram only received an offer in mid-October. Gladbach’s sports director Roland Virkus wanted to wait and see whether Thuram would ever find his old strength. Perhaps he waited too long.##NAJAVA_MECA_6767234##As things stand, it looks like Thuram will not extend his contract. And with his ambition, it’s difficult to see him rejecting an approach from the club that won ten Bundesliga titles in a row.”My ambition is to become the best player I can be. So if I want to be the best possible Marcus. There wouldn’t be much point in trying to predict where I’ll be in two years time. All I can do is make sure I do my best tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.”Never change, @MarcusThuram 😳😂#FCUBMG pic.twitter.com/10I6My5JvV— Gladbach (@borussia_en) October 30, 2022 If Thuram does not extend, the upcoming transfer window is Gladbach’s last chance to make money from selling $20-million-rated forward. Coach Farke emphasized last week that he definitely wants to keep Thuram.”I wouldn’t want to swap Thuram with any player in the league. But there is still potential for development with him!”Sadly for the former Norwich City head coach, he might not have much say in Thuram’s future. The Bavarians are ready to pounce and secure their target at cut price.
