InterLive.it have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are keeping an eye on Marcus Thuram after his brilliant start to the season.
Spurs were one of a whole host of clubs credited with an interest in Thuram during the summer transfer window (90 min) but it was Inter who won the race for the striker, who joined the Nerazzurri on a free transfer after his contract with Borussia Monchengladbach ran out.
The 26-year-old has started his Serie A career like a house on fire, having already registered five goal contributions (two goals and three assists) in his first four league appearances.

Marcus Thuram is on the radar of several clubs
InterLive claim that several big European clubs are now keeping a close eye on the striker’s situation and are ‘ready to try’ for him sooner rather than later.
It is alleged that Simone Inzaghi’s side are preparing for an assault on the Thuram during next summer’s transfer window, with the player on the radars of Spurs, Chelsea and Real Madrid.
The report adds that as things stand, Inter value the former Gladbach star at €40m (£34.8m) but that could increase considerably if he maintains his current standard of performances.
Spurs Web Opinion
Inter have shown that they are certainly not opposed to selling players for a profit soon after buying them as they did with Andre Onana this summer.
Given that they signed Thuram on a free, they would certainly be tempted if they receive a sizable offer for the player next summer.
However, I suspect that the 26-year-old will likely be valued in the £60m-£70m range if he manages to get 20 goal contributions or more this season.
