Atletico de Madrid are preparing to make an offer to sign Francois Clerc after he announced that he would not be renewing his contract with Olympique Lyonnais next summer.
The France international full-back has decided that he does not want to stay on at Stade Gerland and will use the Bosman Ruling to find himself a new club.
Los Colchoneros are keen to bolster their defence and have already made contact with Clerc's agent, Frederic Guerra, but they will face stiff competition for his signature.
"We don't want to renew his deal with Lyon. It's a choice made to find more playing time at another club," Guerra told reporters in France.
"At this moment I'm talking with a few Italian, Spanish and French clubs.
"Anyway he will leave Lyon in June and not in January."
