Kephren sung the song Il mio canto libero at his initiation tonight

This was great.

This guy has the Nedved96 seal of approval. I have scouted him on YouTube for over a year now and I can confirm that he’s going to be phenomenal for us.

Athletic, intelligent, and technical.

In a decade from now, when people think of “Thuram at Juventus”, Lillian will be a firm afterthought. Everyone will be speaking about the legend of Khephren.

ok but if he doesn't turn out legend like you said he will be then 2 year ban?

Why did we buy a player with no family name?

 

[jukazem]

Looking much sharper than Fagioli and lot more intensity than the home-grown players. I guess up to Motta, how to combine them.

One name players are badass

Rivaldo
Neymar
Ronaldinho
Khephren

 

[loyada]

Hopefully he will be successful (or doomed) as his namesakes the pharaohs

[JuveJay]

How does he float like that?

 

[Wings]

You just know Kephren is the favourite and they are giving Marcus shit at home.

 

[Lion]

it's a good thing allegri is gone. he would have never tolerated thuram's glorious hair and would have demanded he shave it all.

 

[Toro_Merda]

Damn, Thuram Senior looks like Samuel Jackson in Django...time flies

 

[Akshen]

Bad game, but I like his style, good tackle and is going forward like a tank. Really excite to see our new midfield

Still rough around the edges but he sure has the potential to be a major improvement to our midfield.

Looks like direct Rabiot replacement, strong, fast, hopefully he is a better passer. Our new horse? Lol

Please no more horses or corto musos around this parts!

He’ll be our new pitbull.

 

[Stevie]

He is foo fall to be a pitbull he is more like a great dane or even a giraffe

The great dane is a good shout but sounds a bit odd when knowing he is french, maybe cane corso would fit better as it’s more neutral…

Watch how Rabiot will no longer be selected to the NT at all and Khephren takes his place there too, you just know Deschamps is uno di noi and will select and give chances to any french player playing for Juve.

Khéphren Thuram's first media appearance in

The first weeks have gone well, I've worked well with the squad and the coach and things are going great."

My father told me that Juventus is the greatest team in the world for him and he told me to take advantage of every moment I spend here: it's a huge learning opportunity and an opportunity for personal and professional growth.

It's a dream to be here, one I've wanted since I was a child: great French players have been here and I'm proud to wear this jersey. I feel very lucky.

I was little when Juventus won the Scudetti with my father, but I hope to win as many with Juventus: he would be as proud of my successes as he has been of those of my brother in recent months. We are his children, his happiness doesn't change.

The coach as a player was exceptional, an intelligent midfielder who knew how to work with the team: I can only learn from someone like Thiago Motta. He was certainly important in my decision to come to Juventus

I don't have a favourite role: I can play either box-to-box or as a midfielder, it depends on what the coach asks of me. My role models are Paul Pogba and Patrick Vieira, I'm inspired by them.

My brother is having a great career, for me he is a role model, he is an extraordinary striker both when it comes to contributing assists and scoring goals. He's in the national team, so he is currently the strongest in the family.

Thiago Motta talks to me every day, he follows me closely, he's giving me good advice that I can't give you, otherwise the others might take advantage [laughs, ed.]. I love passing the ball around a lot, but I always try to take the ball forward, trying to be dynamic and attack if necessary. I feel like a complete player, both in attack and defence

Scoring goals is not the most important thing for me: my role is to give balance to the group and act as a bridge between defence and attack. Everyone likes to score, but it's not my primary task: there are the forwards who think about that

My characteristics I think are suited to Serie A, which is also why I chose Juventus: I'm changing league for the first time and I know that I will have to come up against great champions, and I have also treasured the advice I got from Didier Deschamps

Farioli was an important coach for me, and put enormous trust in me. He expected and demanded a lot from me: at Nice the team was full of young players and he gave me a lot of responsibility

I think Juventus was in my destiny, it's true: since I was 17 this team showed interest in me, but I wanted to wait because I wanted to grow and improve. Many former French players have spoken to me about Juventus and told me that this could be my big chance

Comme Hatem j'ai pas la couleur que DD aime.

It's a quote from Sneazzy's song "Ouais mec" where he accuses Deschamps of being racist in his selection for French NT. So I wouldn't be so sure

Rough game, yikes. Hopefully this wasn’t a sign of things to come.
