Atletico Madrid haven't forgotten about Monaco midfielder Thomas Lemar.
The midfielder is enjoying a great start to the season with seven goals and two assists so far despite being played on the wing by Leonardo Jardim instead of his usual position in the centre of midfield.
L'Equipe has reported that Atlético made an approach for Lemar in August, tabling a bid of 20 million euros for the 21-year-old France international.
Monaco and Atlético maintain a friendly relationship after the Madrid side sold Radamel Falcao to the Ligue 1 club, who returned the favour by selling Yannick Carrasco to Atlético in 2015.
