Monaco star Thomas Lemar has revealed that he is 'open to all offers' this summer amid reported interest from Arsenal and Liverpool.
Arsenal had an offer for Lemar rejected on transfer deadline day in August, but the France international, who can play as a left winger or an attacking midfielder, has continued to be linked with a switch to the Emirates Stadium.
As well as the Gunners and Liverpool, other major clubs, including Manchester City, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, are also monitoring the situation of the £90million-rated Lemar, who is refusing to rule out any option regarding his future.
Asked about his feelings on a move to the Emirates falling through last summer, Lemar told Telefoot: 'Regrets? Maybe. I was a little disappointed.
'Once it's over, it's over, so do not think about it.
'I will keep working hard so these clubs will eventually come back in the next transfer window. I am open to all offers. I am a football player, I like football. I do not close any door.'
It is clear to see why there is such strong interest in Lemar, with the 22-year-old possessing pace and flair in abundance.
Lemar was amongst the scorers as France were beaten 3-2 by Colombia in a friendly on Friday and is set to play a significant part for his country at this summer's World Cup in Russia.
This season Lemar has found the net twice in Ligue 1 for Monaco, while he has registered eight assists.
Monaco are currently languishing 17 points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 table and that could help persuade Lemar to leave the club.

Lemar regret not joining ARSENAL in the summer. And we all know Sanchez regret leaving Arsenal. If Arsenal manage to clear the deadwood Welbeck, Per etc..and get Dembele on loan and Lemar and Oblak on a permament move...we are in for a major overhaul.

Has he been any good this season?

Can't blame him tbh, we were way too late in the window (bidding 92m ffs) and he decided it was too late for a move. Fair enough. I'm not disappointed though. Mkhi + Auba would not be here if Lemar came for 92m or even 60m

When a player is rated at £90m it concerns me as all I can think of is Paul Pogba. I don't know much about him but £90m just has Pogba comparisons in my head.....and therefore he can stay where he is. Lol

Think he's more of a Bakayoko, looks alright in the farmer French league but not worth the money Monaco want at all

He hasn't been very good this season. Anyone paying more than 40m needs their brain cell examining

He¿s not worth anywhere near £90m

Let legendary bokoyoko be a lesson to all of his suitors. Bokoyoko can't pass ,can't run ,can't control the ball. Still a footballer & earns millions per week.

I think there¿s better targets out there for the price...he would be a good addition for Liverpool if we did sign him, but think he is very overpriced at anything more than £50mil

Klopp has improved all his signings,the Forwards are scoring more goals than they ever have before & Virgil & Robertson are now sprinting 10% faster & running over 1 KM more each game than they did at their previous clubs because that's what Klopp does,improves players,all his signings have been a success & he will improve & get the very best out of Lemar who is only 22,has 2 good feet,can play left,right or central,high ratio passing rate & is a phenomenal dribbler & talented free kick taker,what's not to like,sign him up,Liverpool or Arsenal,forget it Wenger he won't sign for you.........

I like him a lot and thinks he fits LFC style perfectly but 90m is too much. At 50/60m sure but 90 is stupid money for him

At this point I’m done questioning Jurgen’s transfers. If we buy Lemar then I’m happy and will trust he will be great for us. If we done then fine. Either way I’m ok with

Hindsight is great. Looking back on it now, I'm pretty happy we didn't spunk away 90m or whatever it was in January on him. Its about 30/40m way over the top. Would still love him to come, as he's a quality player and I think he fits into our system pretty well. Hope we can get him for a more realistic price come Summer.

Lemar hype was based on the Coutinho shock January transfer and people were panicking thinking we'd collapse without replacement. But seeing how we've been spectacular with Super Mo we're in no hurry for an arguably overrated and overpriced Lemar. I fully trust Klopp if he wants him great, if not, he'll get us someone pretty good anyway.

Glad Arsenal didnt take him. He would have flopped so hard. The premier league is a different ballgame and his size is not impressive. Ofcourse, I could be proven wrong but I am pretty sure he wouldnt add much to us. We need physicality more than ever

I'll take being compared to Liverpool at this point. Even though I believe it's not actually true and he rejected Arsenal.

Yeah, and it looked like it affected him a little mentally too. My roommate watches all Monaco's matches and he was nonexistent to start the year and then got hurt. Monaco has been led more by Keita Balde and Rony Lopes then Lemar this year. Surely he'll go for 30m cheaper than those numbers being thrown around last summer. Still a class player sure, but his value has taken a hit i'd say

Whoever ends up getting Lemar this year will benefit from a heavily discounted price compared to last summer. Those numbers being thrown around were absolutely outrageous, I'd be surprised to see him go for more than £55-£60 million now.
