GdS just wrote that Thuram has a 85M release clause 🤔

Not like anyone would actually pay a dime more.

Also if someone would actually put that on the table he be gone no matter what.

We are not going to refuse a 85m on other than Martinez. If a large enough offer arrives all are for sale no exceptions especially for such a sum. Perhaps Barella might not be accepted but then again it might.

At end of days money rules

Like him to stay… but 85m for a player we received on Bosman it’s pretty hard not accepting it for any sort of responsible management

If we sell him I dont see us winning scudetto next season. We should sell Dumfries and thats it, Buchanan and Darmian can play in his position. Zielinsky, Taremi plus one CB and we are good.

I doubt he wants to go. So no matter if they offer 80 or 1000000000000
Yes, he is an established team player now, with great scoring and assist record. Scudetto and promise for next year great season or two. Why would he go anywhere and start from 0?

Not to mention that Thuram is a top earner along with Lautaro, Hakan and Barella at 6 mil net and Thuram has a 5 year contract. If it is up to me, I would give a raise to Bisseck and Frattesi.

Why do people keep saying the same thing? We won't win a scudetto without Lukaku (won it with Lautaro-Thuram pairing). We won't find a better striker for us than Icardi (Lautaro has more goals than Icardi and two Serie A titles). etc...

Players leave all the time. Imagine if Thuram is sold and we get both Gudmundsson and Zirkzee, do you still think we can't win the league?

Altho obviously Lautaro - Thuram - Taremi - Gudmundsson would still look good enough for a title run. Might keep one of Arnautović or Sanchez for one more season as the fifth choice in that case, because I'm not totally sure Taremi won't be injured for most of the season. Just a feeling.

Regardless whether we want him gone or not is out of our hands. Mans got a release clause for a reason

Nobody wants him gone, but I can understand why Inter would let him go. There will be new players coming in, either this summer or the next. Dumfries probably ain't staying for long, Mhki, Acerbi and Darmian are slowly getting too old to be playing this much. We also will need a new GK in our ranks soon.

The rebuild is still on, but if we continue in this fashion, this Inter is going to be killer in the next 5 seasons at least.

If he does not want to go, release clause won't work.

I think its natural to have some doubts about whether Thuram can replicate his amazing performance next season. He really did shine this past year. From clutch penalties to forcing own goals and everything in between, he seemed to do it all.

It's just that when you start analyzing things, it's easy to wonder if it was a one-time thing. I mean... I am not saying he'll suddenly become terrible or anything, just that matching that level of performance might be tough.

Think of it like this: this season, Thuram was like a solid 9 out of 10, given all the circumstances. But maybe in the grand scheme of things, he's more like a 6.5 out of 10 player. So, it might be worth considering a really good sale if the opportunity arises. Something like the Onana situation. The difference being that I really love what Thuram has been doing this season, and I never got that with Onana :D

For 70 millions or more, i think that we're selling him if he gives green light.

HOWEVER, having said all this, only a fool would walk away from this club and the incredible chemistry here. His performance is largely influenced by the way our team operates. He's not quite at that level of individual quality yet, and maybe he never will be. It's similar to Lukaku, who mistakenly believed it was all about him rather than the system Conte had set up.

So yeah...

He's the only good one on that podcast; good for him that he managed to turn it into a career.
I'd argue the inter fan is actually pretty good. The milan fan is there for entertainment purpose, and the Greek guy is just a partner.

Inter would let Thuram go but I don't see Thuram leaving Inter. He could literally pick his team last summer and he picked Inter. After a season like this, what on Earth would make him leave this place now?

inter dude is decently reasonable, althoughly I don't often agree with his takes. But it is just entertainment at the end of the day.

I doubt any suitors will offer 80M above on him. His G/A did not convince any rich clubs more than 40M yet.

Anto the Milan fan is very spot on with his analysis normally, I agree most of his opinions, specially regarding football. :D Not all, maybe regarding to Inter because of his hatred.

PSG/Chelsea will be in panic mode and definitely will splash a lot of money. I can see Thuram leaving for 85m.

Wouldn't want to see him go, but 85m gives us a lot of room to get reinforcements

No questions about it. If he doesn't want to go, i hope we don't pull a Sneijder on him :D

He is amazing as a supporting striker for Lautaro.
