Thuram to sell energy drinks

Austrian newspaper Salzburger Nachrichten claims that Red Bull Salzburg is interested in the transfer of Barcelona central defender Lilian Thuram (36). The Austrian champion wants to bring in the French international to act as a guide for the younger players (read more here), since the squad is expected to be seriously rejuvenated by future Salzburg manager Co Adriaanse, who will replace Italian manager Giovanni Trapattoni at the end of the season.

The transfer could also have a commercial reason, since the energy drink that gives its name to the team, has recently been allowed to be sold again on the French market, after a five-year ban. Thuram is believed to be able to act as a perfect ambassador for the drink in his home country.
