La Liga
Atlético Madrid would have a clear opportunity to close one of the most disappointing chapters in its recent history: that of Thomas Lemar. Olympique Lyon has shown a strong interest in the French footballer, who could return to his native country for the 2025-26 season. Although not the only club to have inquired about him, they seem the most determined to negotiate with the Colchoneros.
Lemar, 29, arrived at Atlético in 2018 in a €70 million transfer from Monaco. He was expected to be one of the key figures in the project, but his performance never lived up to expectations. Despite Simeone's trust, constant injuries and lack of consistency have led to his diminishing prominence year after year.
Atlético Opens Its Doors Wide
The last season reflects his situation: just 128 minutes in eight official matches. Although he's under contract until 2027, the Madrid club would welcome his departure if the player decides to seek a new adventure.
As reported by AS, Lyon, remaining in Ligue 1 next season, could be the ideal destination for Lemar to revitalize his career. He is scheduled to rejoin preseason training on the 21st, but his future might be resolved sooner. For Atlético, this operation is seen as a chance to close a chapter marked by frustration.
