D. Baggio: “Impressed by Marcus Thuram: he has quality, but also personality. Everyone loves him”

Not only about Khephren Thuram, Juventus’ next purchase, during the interview given today to The Sports Gazette Dino Baggio he also spoke about his brother Marcus and his surprising season at Inter: “I’m really happy for Thuram, he’s a great person and deserves the joy of seeing his sons in Serie A. I saw Marcus kick a ball for the first time. He was born when Lilian and I were playing for Parma. He often took him to the training ground and then to the Tardini to watch the games. And after the games we spent time with the families and had fun. I’ve always followed the careers of these two boys: I have to say that Marcus, in his first year in Italy, really impressed me. Aside from his technical and athletic qualities, he has shown that he has a remarkable personality: he settled in immediately at Inter and the fans adore him”.

On the upcoming derby d’Italia, Thuram’s former teammate at Parma then added: “I wouldn’t want to be in Lilian’s shoes. I think that, like a good father, he will be on the side of those who need support the most. Or he won’t take sides at all and maybe he won’t even go to the stadium: Lilian is stranger than you might imagine…”.
