Marcus Thuram, the Inter Milan striker, has the opportunity to win the Champions League, a feat his father, Lilian Thuram, never achieved. The young player will compete against Paris Saint-Germain in the final at the Allianz Arena in Munich.
Lilian Thuram, a former European and World champion, never clinched the Champions League, although he reached the final with Juventus in 2003. Marcus, now 27 years old, has the chance to fill this gap in the family trophy collection. He emphasises that his father is a huge support for him.
My father? Hopefully we can show him what it's like to win the Champions League. He's a supportive father and always gives me advice, not just for finals, the Inter striker recalls.
Key role in Inter
Thuram, playing alongside Lautaro Martinez, is a key player for Inter. This season, he has scored 18 goals, 14 of which were in Serie A. His partnership with Martinez is one of the team's strengths.
Inter Milan, which last celebrated Champions League success in 2010, will approach the match against PSG with a calm mindset.
We have to approach it the way a final should be approached, without putting too much pressure on ourselves and without thinking about Istanbul, Thuram assures.
