Arsenal and Liverpool have been encouraged in their pursuit of Thomas Lemar after Monaco vice president Vadim Vasilyev conceded that "it's right to let players go."
The Daily Mirror says Lemar will be allowed to leave after the World Cup, with Arsenal in pole position after coming close to securing a £92m deal on deadline day.
The 21-year-old played a key role in Monaco's Ligue 1 triumph last season, but saw star teammates Bernardo Silva, Benjamin Mendy, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Kylian Mbappe all leave for new challenges.
It's thought that Lemar will plot his own exit route before the end of the campaign, with a January move still a possibility depending on how Monaco are faring in domestic and European competition.
