Borussia Monchengladbach attacker Marcus Thuram has rejected an offer to join Chelsea as a free agent this summer, according to L’Equipe.

Thuram will be leaving Gladbach at the end of the season on a free transfer and several clubs are interested in getting their hands on him.

He has scored 16 goals in all competitions this season and his free-agent status has made him a big target for several clubs across Europe.

Thuram wants to play Champions League football next season and is reportedly keen on waiting for the right club.

Manchester United, Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid are also interested in signing the forward.
