The "TEAMtalk" website revealed that Manchester United and Liverpool are set to face disappointment in their pursuit of signing Khephren Thuram, as the player is close to committing his long-term future to Juventus.

According to the report, Thuram, aged 24, was among the top targets for the two English clubs to strengthen their midfield during the summer transfer window. Manchester United's interest in him dates back to his impressive performances with Nice, while Liverpool's management believes he can enhance the quality of their midfield.

The site indicated that Juventus has accelerated negotiations to renew the player's contract and is close to reaching an agreement that will keep him with the team for the coming years, especially after renewing Kenan Yildiz's contract, which has enhanced stability within the club.

Since joining Juventus in 2024, Thuram has delivered strong performances, participating in 32 matches across all competitions this season, scoring two goals and providing three assists. He has also played in four international matches with the French national team.

The report confirmed that Juventus is confident in completing the agreement soon, and if it does not materialize, Manchester United and Liverpool will remain on alert. However, current indications suggest that the player will stay in Turin, which may prompt the two English clubs to look for other alternatives this summer.
