OGC Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram has revealed why he opted to remain with the Ligue Un outfit in the summer amid interest from Liverpool and Newcastle.
Thuram was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League during the recent summer transfer window.

Honestly, it made me happy to be linked to all these clubs left, right and centre.During the summer, Liverpool expert Neil Jones suggested that they were unwilling to pay over £40m for Thuram or Romeo Lavia.“Whether France’s exit from the European U21 Championship impacts their ability now to go and get a deal done… Possibly.
