Manchester United in contact with flop winger eyed up as Jadon Sancho alternative

Manchester United's representatives have met with Thomas Lemar's agent over a proposed move from Atletico Madrid, according to AS. The 24-year-old winger is on United’s radar having flopped badly at Atletico Madrid. Lemar joined Atleti from Monaco in 2018 for €70million. He has only scored three goals in 67 appearances. Although, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has registered his interest, probably as a back-up option to Jadon Sancho. Atleti are believed to be ready to let Lemar go this summer with coach Diego Simeone saying in January: “Let’s hope he has a good moment when he comes back from injury. “Now, if Lemar can stay or not… we know that agents work in an exemplary way. Clubs work in terms of the needs of the clubs. But, as a footballer, every time he has been available, he’s played a lot more than he hasn’t played. His characteristics have always excited me. But he hasn’t been able to live up to expectations." Meanwhile, United have also held talks over a possible summer move for Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot, according to Gazzetto dello Sport.
