Sales ban at Borussia: Farke wants to keep Hattrick-Thuram Sports

Marcus Thuram (24) did excellent self-promotion with his hat-trick gala in the 9-1 win in Oberachern – but for which club?

When it comes to Daniel Farke (45), things are crystal clear: the coach is planning solidly with him – and not just until the end of the transfer window on August 31.

Farke to BILD: “His hat-trick was one of the many positive things. He’s worked very hard in preparation to get himself in good shape. Being there at the beginning of a game and scoring the first three goals is a sign of his great class. I am absolutely sure that he will have a very good season for us.”

FOR US!

That means: If Farke has his way, a Thuram sale is out of the question!

Roland Virkus (55) also heard Farke’s words. The manager has to manage the very difficult balancing act: either he still sells the internationally sought-after Frenchman. And thus disappointed his coach, who put a lot of development work into Thuram to bring him back to his top level after the last disaster season (only 3 goals and one assist). Or he risks that Borussia will have to let the Frenchman go free of charge in 2023 – actually an absurdity for VfL!

Farke is of course aware of this problem. Even before the cup game, he said with a laugh to Virkus: “I have the best job in the world – I work with the players who have a contract here. Roland has to solve the economic aspects.”

Especially with Thuram, Virkus can only do it wrong at the moment and lose…
