Khephren Thuram, the 23-year-old midfielder, has made a significant move in his career by signing with Juventus, his father's former club. The talented player joined his brother Marcus Thuram in Serie A, marking a new chapter in their football journey.
Thuram's transfer to Juventus was finalized with a five-year contract worth €20 million ($22 million) from Nice. This move was one of the initial signings made by the new Juventus coach, Thiago Motta, who also welcomed midfielder Douglas Luiz from Aston Villa.
The Thuram family has a strong football legacy, with their father Lilian Thuram being a renowned defender and World Cup winner with France in 1998. Marcus Thuram, Khephren's brother, currently plays as a forward for Serie A champions Inter Milan.
Khephren Thuram's football journey has been on an upward trajectory, as he earned his first call-up to the French national team last year. Meanwhile, Marcus Thuram was part of the French squad at the recent European Championship.
Before his move to Juventus, Khephren Thuram played for Parma and was born in Reggio Emilia, near where his father Lilian was playing at the time. The Thuram brothers now find themselves in Italy's top football league, showcasing their skills and continuing the family's footballing legacy.
