Thomas Lemar appears well in the Diego Simeone group for the Club World Cup, which is currently playing in the United States. The tricolor international (27 selections) was even on the sidelines for the first two matches of the group of his club, against Paris Saint-Germain (4-0 defeat) and Seattle (3-1 victory).
However, the number 11 of the Colchoneros has never come into play. In the past two seasons, its playing time is simply starry. His statistics too. Only eleven matches played, all competitions combined, since the summer of 2023. A single goal scored, during a championship victory, against Valladolid (2-0).
Before this achievement, Thomas Lemar had no longer found the net since April 20, 2019. Started by Atlético de Madrid at AS Monaco in 2018 for 70 million euros, the native of Baie-Mahault (Guadeloupe) lost practically any market value. The Transfermarkt site, specialized in transfer window, estimates it at only five million euros. However, he still has two years of contract.
Thomas Lemar, the harshness will be the fall
“Lemar is a very good player, believe meassured his Argentinian coach, after the goal scored by his French striker last March.
In the team, we don't have a single player with his speed, his ball conduct, his style … I hope we can give him the confidence he needs, because he is a player who can do us a lot of good. »»
The player trained in Caen will therefore have reached the peak of his career in his career at the age of 22. On July 15, 2018, he became world champion following the victory of the Blues in the final against Croatia (4-2). Victim of several physical seeds, the former Monegasque has seen his career gradually sink since that date. Now 29 years old, he could have the opportunity to relaunch himself in another club. Nevertheless, the contenders are not legion for an element that has 270,000 euros per month.
