He experienced everything under the Nice colors, from his first minutes in Ligue 1 to European competitions, to his first selection for the French national team in March 2024. In total, Khephren Thuram played 164 matches with OGC Nice across all competitions.
He will not participate in the Olympic Games
Included in Thierry Henry’s list, Khéphren Thuram attended Clairefontaine, where the Bleuets are preparing for the international competition. Juventus is reportedly opposing their new player’s participation in the Olympic Games.
