Thomas Lemar has pace, supports in defense, contributes in attack and scores goals. The forward was targeted by different teams last August, but the Monaco star, who is not having one of his best seasons, chose to stay for one more season; however, after being eliminated from the Champions League, it seems that he wouldn't have much time left.
Liverpool and Arsenal have had and still have an interest in signing Lemar, but reports in France state that another English team has entered the race.
L'Equipe published that Chelsea, led by Antonio Conte, would have the 22-year-old player on their radar. The management would be willing to make an offer of 90 million euros in January to test Monaco's value.
Lemar was one of the architects of the French team reaching the Champions League semifinals last season, where they were eliminated by Juventus.
After a dream season, Lemar has not been able to replicate the same level. A shoulder injury kept him away from the field for a month. He returned last weekend against Troyes.
