Foot Mercato report today that Atlético Madrid goalkeeper Ivo Grbić has agreed to join Lille, as discussions advance between the two clubs.

The Croatian, who has been with Los Colchoneros for the last year since arriving from Lokomotiva Zagreb, now looks set to be the replacement for Mike Maignan, Les Dogues’ starting goalkeeper who has now left for Milan.

Grbić’s agent, Andy Bara, is expected to meet with the Lille management next week to carry on talks as the former Croatia youth international gives his approval for a move to Ligue 1.
