A Thuram social media comment to a post from Lautaro Martinez seems to have ended the dispute between the Inter star strikers.

Thuram comments on Lautaro’s Instagram post

Thuram commented on El Toro’s latest Instagram post while on holiday, writing: ‘Be careful, you can’t swim.’

Thuram had taken a clear stance in favour of Hakan Calhanoglu earlier this month, when he liked an Instagram post with which the Inter midfielder firmly replied to his captain.

Thuram and Lautaro cleared the air

Lautaro had criticised Calhanoglu after the elimination from the Club World Cup, urging him to leave if he no longer had the motivation to stay at San Siro.

Thuram and Lautaro had already cleared the air with a phone call in the previous days, and, as reported by Gazzetta, the Frenchman’s social media comment confirms the end to the rift with Lautaro.

Thuram has an €85m clause included in his contract, but it expired earlier this week.
