Following the controversy over Marcus`s `like` on Calhanoglu`s post, the Frenchman shared a light-hearted joke with the Nerazzurri captain.
A humorous exchange on social media has restored peace between Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. The French forward had previously faced fan criticism after liking Hakan Calhanoglu`s post. Calhanoglu`s message, implicitly aimed at Lautaro after their World Club Cup defeat to Fluminense, stated: “The true leader is one who stands by his teammates, not one who seeks a scapegoat when it`s easier to do so.”

The “ThuLa” partnership has now rediscovered its harmony. Thuram playfully commented on one of Lautaro`s recent photos, taken while the latter is still in Argentina with his wife, recharging after a demanding season. Under a picture of Lautaro about to dive into a pool, Marcus wrote: “Be careful, you can`t swim.” This witty remark garnered a flood of `likes` from Inter supporters, showing the bond between the players. The two had clarified their misunderstanding in recent days, and the brief controversy sparked by that `like` has now completely subsided.
