The Nerazzurri fans have chosen their best player of October: Marcus Thuram is the winner of the ‘Betsson Sport Player of the Month’ poll launched by Inter on their social channels. The Frenchman prevailed over Zielinski, Carlos Augusto, and Mkhitaryan, the other three candidates in the running.
The supporters’ choice was motivated by an October in which Thuram proved decisive on several occasions, as reported by Inter.it. He kicked off the month with a goal in the home match against Parma, played after the international break, and then scored with a header at the end of the first half in Bologna, earning the Nerazzurri a draw.
Even more crucial was his contribution against Fiorentina: a left-footed low shot in the 91st minute for the equalizer, then winning a penalty in the 96th minute that allowed the Nerazzurri to take home three points in a match that seemed compromised. In Venice, instead, he provoked the home team’s first own goal in the 80th minute, unlocking a complicated game.
On the club’s official website it reads: “A series of inspiring performances and decisive goals, carrying the team on his shoulders in difficult moments: Tikus was the absolute protagonist of Nerazzurri October, lethal in the penalty area and leader of the attacking front.”
