Despite his lengthy spell on the sidelines, he was one of Inter’s best-performing players on Sunday.
In addition to hitting the post in the first half, the French ace drew a penalty for his side.
Yet, Calhanoglu saw his effort parried away by Mike Maignan.
Overall, it was an astonishing performance from Thuram, who will likely partner up with Lautaro Martinez again on Wednesday.
Chivu’s side will take on Atletico Madrid in a high-stakes Champions League clash tomorrow, with Thuram expected to start.
