Thuram宣佈他將在世界盃會外賽最後一戰結束後再次從國家隊退休。 According to reports in France on Tuesday, the 33-year-old would have made his announcement last Sunday, had Les Bleus defeated Switzerland and qualified directly for Germany 2006. 根據法國當地的報導，Thuram有意在上週六宣佈此事， 如果當時法國擊敗瑞士成功晉級世界盃會內賽的話。 Sources close to the World Cup-winning right-back claim he is no longer physically capable of playing at the highest level for both club and country. Thuram的體能狀況已不再能同時負擔俱樂部與國家隊的兩線作戰。 The former Monaco and Parma player missed several games with current club side Juventus after returning from France's qualifiers against the Faroe Islands and Ireland with a thigh injury. Thuram也因為參加法國對法羅群島與愛爾蘭的兩場世界盃會外賽， 帶著大腿傷回到JUVE，並缺席了數場比賽。 He revealed at the time the full toll international football placed on his body: "Any international match, even against the Faroe Islands, is more physically demanding than Juventus versus Milan." Thuram說：「任何一場國家隊賽事，就算是對法羅群島， 對體能的消耗遠比參加JUVE對Milan這樣的比賽更高。」 Thuram initially announced his international retirement after the disappointing Euro 2004 campaign. However he was persuaded to return to the fold last August, to help France qualify for the World Cup, by fellow premature retirees Zinedine Zidane and Claude Makelele. －－－ 如果Thuram除了頭型，連想法也像Jordan的話， 他應該還會再復出一次．．．．．． -- 我們身體裡豢養的死亡一天天長大. --
