Amid interest from other teams, Inter prepares an improved contract for Thuram
Inter is working on a new contract for Marcus Thuram. The Italian giant plans to revise the terms of the agreement with the French forward to remove the buyout clause and increase his salary.
Details: According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the "Nerazzurri" intend to extend the contract with Marcus Thuram, who joined the club in 2023 as a free agent. The forward quickly became a key figure in the team's attacking setup, forming a powerful duo with Lautaro Martinez and contributing to the Scudetto victory.
Reminder: The current agreement with the 26-year-old Frenchman is valid until 2028, but it includes a release clause of 85 million euros. The club is concerned that European giants might take advantage of this clause, so they want to remove it from the new contract.
Moreover, as part of the contract review, Inter is ready to increase Thuram's salary and offer him a wage higher than Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Nicolò Barella. Currently, only Lautaro Martinez earns more in the team.
