Yannick Carrasco allowed to leave Atletico Madrid?

Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone has reportedly given the green light for Yannick Carrasco to be sold during the January transfer window.

Carrasco has enjoyed a successful two-and-a-half years in Madrid, with 22 goals being scored in 114 appearances for the La Liga giants.

However, the 24-year-old has recently been involved in a number of training ground bust-ups, with Koke, Gabi and coach Oscar Ortega all said to have had disagreements with the Belgian international.

According to AS, it has led to Simeone deciding to try to sell the attacker at the start of 2018 and Carrasco is unlikely to be short of offers.

Arsenal could see the player as a potential replacement for Alexis Sanchez, while Chelsea have previously been linked with an approach for the wideman.

Bayern Munich are also looking for long-term replacements for Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, and Carrasco could fit the bill.
