Atletico Madrid & Lucas Hernandez Deny 'Agreement' With Bayern Munich Over €85m Transfer

Atlético Madrid defender Lucas Hernández has denied reaching an agreement with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich ahead of the January transfer window.

The 22-year-old has been coming on leaps and bounds over the last few years, making a name for himself as either a full back or centre back at the Wanda Metropolitano. Hernández even featured as a left back during France's World Cup winning campaign.

Ahead of the January transfer window, Marca reported that Bayern Munich would seal a €85m deal for Hernández next month, breaking the club's previous record transfer - Corentin Tolisso at €40m - as well as the record fee ever paid for a defender.
