The Borussia Dortmund midfielder will be out of contract in the summer and will not be renewing it, so the "quilters" want to take advantage of the opportunity and bring him in without compensation.
Sporting director Mateu Alemani is closely monitoring the situation and sees Brant as the ideal solution to replace the French star, who is moving to Orlando City.
However, Atletico will have to offer a serious contract and bonus to entice the German to come to Madrid.
Brant has 11 goals and three assists this season, and his versatility and experience make him highly desirable on the market.
In addition to him, Atletico are also working on the arrival of Atalanta midfielder Ederson, with the aim of further strengthening the midfield.
