Real Madrid have shown interest in acquiring Marcus Thuram to compensate for the departure of Karim Benzema. Thuram's contract includes an €85 million release clause. Reports suggest that Real Madrid will face competition from both Barcelona and Liverpool for the French international. Barcelona are in search of a long-term successor for Robert Lewandowski, whereas Liverpool aim to enhance their attacking lineup. If Thuram were to join Real Madrid, it would ease the goalscoring responsibilities on Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Junior, granting them more freedom on the pitch. Inter Milan, Thuram's current team, are reportedly unlikely to accept any offer below the release clause, making the transfer a substantial financial undertaking for any interested club.
