The Atlético de Madrid begins to have suspicions that the Barcelona he is getting very subtly close to his player Thomas lemar. The French midfielder has aroused the interest of the Barça coaching staff and the directives headed by Joan Laporta. Although no offers have yet reached the Madrid club’s offices, Alemany hopes to be able to do so in the coming days.
In the business that both clubs closed with the transfer of Antoine Griezmann, the Blaugrana team requested the transfer of the attacker Joao Felix. However, Andrea Berta was emphatic, and stressed that it is a very important piece for Simeone. Interest stopped there and no other player was mentioned again. The culé sports management wants to reactivate that loan option, but this time in the French midfielder.
The Catalan team wants to give way out once and for all to the Brazilian Philippe Coutinho, and they would have already thought of Lemar as their most successful replacement. The Frenchman is in an incredible performance, under the direction of Simeone, racing there and here. In fact, one of his two goals this season, he scored against Barcelona last Saturday.
Although the Barça team thinks about requesting the loan of the French player, the truth is that if they manage to remove at least 30 kilos in Coutinho’s operation, they could take over Lemar’s sports rights at once. However, the request of the Argentine coach remains the same, not to make cash with any player who is not discarded, and at this time the French is essential.
The azulgrana box thinks of a barter between Coutinho and Lemar, as a last resort to obtain the services of the French. Although the operation does not sound crazy, since their prices in the market are somewhat similar, Atlético continues in its firm idea of keeping the Frenchman. Although we are talking about the most expensive signing in the history of Barcelona.
Another drawback is that the player has decided to leave LaLiga Santander, since it seems that he has already arranged everything with Tottenham. However, the Barça team is the one who has the last word, as the attacker remains the property of the culé team until 2023. We will have to wait as follows for the performance of the French midfielder, from here until the opening of the winter market.
