Paris Saint-German have ‘concrete interest’ in signing Marcus Thuram on a free transfer this summer.
Thuram is expected to be one of the most in demand free agents of the transfer window with the forward set to leave Borussia Monchengladbach when his contract expires.
The France international scored 16 goals in all competitions for the Bundesliga side last season and has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs.
English sides are set to face considerable competition for his services however, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that PSG have ‘concrete interest’ in signing the 25-year-old ahead of next season.
PSG have moved quickly to reinforce their squad this summer and have already agreed deals to sign Manuel Ugarte from Sporting Lisbon and Marco Asensio from Real Madrid, with the latter also set to be confirmed as a free agent addition for the Ligue 1 champions.

PSG’s move for Thuram comes following Lionel Messi’s exit from the Parc des Princes, while Neymar has also been linked with leaving the club as the Parisians look to rebuild.
Thuram could unite with France team-mate Kylian Mbappe in Paris, with the duo having formed part of the squad that reached the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar.
