Marcus Thuram's statements about dad and Ronaldo are reported by tuttomercatoweb.com.
“When I was very young the idol was Ronaldo, the Brazilian. I heard mom and dad talking about him. When he played against him, it was terror; a great motivation. I also have an anecdote about the phenomenon. As a child I had a blanket that I never left. At one point my parents told me it was to be thrown away and when I rebelled my mother said to me: "We will give it to Ronaldo". And so I decided to leave it. "
During this season, Marcos Thuram has scored ten goals in twenty-six games for Bor. M'gladbach. One of these goals was decisive during the Europa League match between the Germans and Roma.
