Thomas Lemar is all set to join Spanish club, Atletico Madrid. Ligue 1 club, AS Monaco on Tuesday announced they had reached an agreement to sell Lemar.
The Ligue 1 side said the two sides would “continue to work in the coming days to find a definitive agreement.”
The 22-year-old France international has been a subject of interest from Arsenal and Liverpool among others. But he now appears destined for a move to La Liga.
The Guadeloupe-born attacker joined Monaco from Caen ahead of the 2015-16 season. He eventually established himself as one of Ligue 1’s best left-sided players.
Lemar broke through in the 2016-17 campaign, scoring 14 goals and adding 17 assists. Monaco also had a season to remember, as they won Ligue 1 and reached the Champions League semi-finals.
The France international could now be set to join up with his international team-mate, Antoine Griezmann if the forward decides to stay.

Griezmann revealed he has decided on a potential summer transfer to Barcelona but isn’t ready to make that decision public.
Griezmann has called on Atletico to invest more in their squad. And, Lemar’s arrival is a sign the La Liga runners-up are taking their star’s advice.
Griezmann has refused to reveal where his future will lie. Though he admitted, he had decided on a potential summer transfer.
He said on Tuesday:
“Sorry, but today is not the day. I know there’s a lot of expectation, but today is not the day. I have already made my decision, but it is not the time to announce it.”
Griezmann is expected to play a key role in France’s bid to win the FIFA World Cup 2018 for the first time since 1998.
Lemar and Griezmann are part of the France team that will begin their Group C campaign against Australia on Saturday. Peru and Denmark also belong in their group.
