Manchester United remain interested in Juventus midfield star Khephren Thuram

Manchester United need midifield cover for next season with two veterans in Christian Eriksen and Casemiro likely to depart in the summer.

The Dane’s contract is up and the club have not offered him an extension. As for the Brazilian, despite his recent improved form, he simply does not have the legs to effectively operate in a two-man system.

Manuel Ugarte and Bruno Fernandes are the two available options at Ruben Amorim’s disposal and with the head coach ultimately preferring to move the club captain back into his favoured attacking midfield role, he could do with another midfield addition.

Last season the Red Devils were linked with a move for Khephren Thuram, son of the legendary Lilian, who was plying his trade for OGC Nice, owned by INEOS.
