Atletico Madrid are prepared to sell forward Thomas Lemar in the January transfer window, according to reports.
The France international became the club’s record signing – but has since been displaced by Joao Felix – when he joined the club from Monaco in the summer of 2018 in a €60m deal.
The 24-year-old is no longer a regular in Diego Simeone’s side and has yet to score or register an assist to date this campaign.
Lemar has made 61 appearances for Los Rojiblancos but he has managed to find the net just three times across that spell, which has been underwhelming.
Now France Football report, via Teamtalk, that the club are prepared to cut their losses on the player to then reinvest elsewhere in the squad.
It has been reported that Atleti are operating at the maximum of their wage budget, meaning that they must sell before they can rejuvenate their squad.
