The French club Lille is interested in Grêmio's attacking midfielder and prodigy, Gabriel Mek, who is valued by the French club for his rare dribbling skills and field vision. Grêmio will only consider selling Mek for 20 million euros, and only if the club fails to convince the player to sign a new contract in the near future. The Brazilian club believes a substantial salary increase will be enough to retain Mek and deter interest from other European teams.
