Lille delivered the standout shock of the second round of the Champions League, defeating Real Madrid on home turf. Goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, who kept a clean sheet, has now attracted the interest of two top Premier League clubs.

Details: According to TBR Football, scouts from both Manchester City and Newcastle have been closely monitoring Chevalier's performances. Both clubs are looking for long-term reinforcement in the goalkeeper position, with Chevalier being one of their primary targets.

This comes amidst growing rumors over the summer regarding interest in Manchester City’s first-choice keeper, Ederson. The club is keen to have a strong alternative ready to potentially succeed the Brazilian.

The 22-year-old Chevalier is a product of Lille’s academy and has already made 91 appearances for the club.

Reminder: The defeat to Lille marked Real Madrid’s first loss of the season across all competitions.
