Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappé argues that his international teammate Marcus Thuram has made the right call by joining Inter Milan.
The 26-year-old joined the Nerazzurri last summer on a free transfer after seeing out his contract with Borussia Monchengladbach.
The Frenchman rapidly established himself as an automatic starter in Simone Inzaghi’s starting formation.
The former Socheaux has been on spectacular form, scoring five goals and providing eight assists across all competitions.
Thuram swiftly formed a great understanding with Inter captain Lautaro Martinez. The two attackers are spearheading the club’s 3-5-2 formation.
So while the France international used to play out wide, he’s now featuring in a more central role much to Mbappé’s delight.
The PSG superstar reveals that he had always advised his friend and compatriot to play as a striker.
Kylian Mbappé Feels Inter Milan Summer Signing Marcus Thuram Should Have Always Played As Striker
Moreover, the 2018 World Cup winner feels that Thuram made a wise decision by joining the Italian giants.
“I’ve been telling him for years that he has to play as a striker, but he doesn’t listen to me!” said the PSG man in his interview with RMC Sport via FcInterNews.
“He has all the qualities required to be an excellent centre-forward.
“We talk every day, I have a lot of affection for him. He made the right choice by signing for Inter.”
France will host Gibraltar this evening in Nice before traveling for Greece for their final Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Nevertheless, Les Bleus have already booked their spot in next summer’s tournament, giving Didier Deschamps the chance to experiment in this international break.
