France Star Shows Little Beyond Fluke Goal In Hometown Return In Parma 2-2 Inter Milan Serie A Draw
This is the view across the player ratings for the match, as TuttoMercatoWeb highlight.
Striker Marcus Thuram started for Inter Milan yesterday.
And it was a personally very significant match for the 27-year-old.
Thuram was actually born in the city of Parma. This was while his father, iconic former defender Lilian, was playing for the Gialloblu.
Therefore, it was a hometown return for the France international.
And Marcus Thuram did mark his return to his hometown with a goal.
It was something of a fluke goal from the 27-year-old. He seemed to have scuffed his finish, but this ended up resulting in the ball looping over the covering Parma defenders and into the net.
But that was about it from Thuram, in the view of Italian media.
The Frenchman was still not at his best, even though he was able to get back on the scoresheet in Serie A.

Official: Milinkovic-Savic completes Napoli transfer for 21.5m
Vanja Milinkovic-Savic has completed his transfer to Napoli on loan with obligation to buy for a reported total fee of €21.5m. The goalkeeper arrived this morning for his medical tests and was given the all clear. Although he had a release clause in his contract set at €20m, Napoli agreed to pay a slightly higher fee in order to have the option of spreading out the payment over several instalments.

Revealed – Why Galatasaray Pursuit Of Inter Milan Midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu Broke Down
The pursuit of Galatasaray of Inter Milan midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu broke down over the player's contract demands. This according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInter1908. Midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu stayed at Inter Milan this summer. He did so in spite of a lot of transfer rumours, though. Galatasaray had reportedly been keen to sign the 31-year-old former AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen midfielder. However, the Gazzetta report that the Istanbul giants did not even make Inter an official offer. A deal for Calhanoglu would simply have been out of reach financially for Galatasaray. For one thing, the Turkish international was insisting on a wage increase from the €7.5 million net per season plus add-ons he earns at Inter. And he wanted at least a three-year deal. Galatasaray Pursuit Of Inter Midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu Broke Down Over Wages LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – JUNE 11: Hakan Calhanoglu #20 of FC Internazionale Milano after disembarking at Los Angeles International Airport for FIFA Club World Cup 2025 on June 11, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by) According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, those demands from Calhanoglu's camp were not realistic for Galatasaray. The Turkish champions would have had to pay more than the midfielder earns at Inter. Reportedly, Calhanoglu receives a bonus of a million euros for Champions League qualification in his contract with Inter. Therefore, the Gazzetta report, Galatasaray had to withdraw in the end. They did not even make an offer for Calhanoglu.
