Filipe Luis: I asked for PSG move but Atletico Madrid lied about me

The 33-year-old has admitted that there was something of a dispute this summer, but it was rapidly defused

Atletico Madrid defender Filipe Luis admits that he wanted to discuss a move to Paris Saint-Germain this summer but says that the club went out of their way to “make his image worse”.

The Brazil international was one of the players that PSG chased this summer in order to solve their left-back problem, before eventually settling upon Juan Bernat.

The former Chelsea player was left frustrated, however, that he was not able to at least discuss terms with the Ligue 1 side.
