The football market in Italy was officially opened this Saturday, and Inter boasted reinforcements on the first day. It was announced during the week, but now it’s official: the new Nerazzurri player is Marcus Thuram. The French striker comes to the club as a free agent since his contract with Monchengladbach has expired, he signed a five-year contract with the European vice-champion, and according to the Italian media, he will earn 6,500,000 euros per year, which means that the 25-year-old French national team member will earn 32,500,000 euros.Official ✍️#ForzaInter #WelcomeMarcus pic.twitter.com/3xOjdo3kqB— Inter (@Inter) July 1, 2023 Mönchengladbach put a lot of effort into keeping their top scorer from the previous season (he scored 16 goals in all competitions) in the club, but Thuram refused all offers from the leaders of Borussia, wanting to try himself in a new environment, more ambitious one. At first, Barcelona and Inter appeared as options, but they excluded themselves from the story so that at the beginning of the transition period, Paris Saint-Germain, Milan, and Leipzig entered the short circle of candidates. Inter was not in sight at that moment.Brozovic doesn’t give a fu*k! He is demanding millions from Inter to do them a favour and leave to Al-NassrAll the mentioned clubs offered different conditions, and after several weeks of deliberation, Thuram decided to shake hands with Rossoneri. However, then the Nerazzurri suddenly took interest again and snatched the player in front of their arch-rivals, giving an indication that this summer they will fight with Milan fiercely for a large number of the same transfer targets (Davide Frattesi, Yunus Musah, Lazar Samardžić…). Thuram and Inter are not crossing paths for the first time. In October 2020, the Frenchman made his Champions League debut in the Mönchengladbach jersey against the Nerazzurri at Giuseppe Meazza. Markus played 134 games for Borussia during four seasons, scoring 44 goals and registering 29 assists.##NAJAVA_MECA_7347256##
