Transfer Request Submitted? Arsenal and Liverpool on Alert After Attacker's Latest Move
The 21-year-old forward wants Lille to consider offers from bigger clubs, but the French side says a summer move is not planned.
- On Tuesday, Lille President Olivier Letang rejected an exit request from Matias Fernandez-Pardo, despite reported interest from Arsenal and Liverpool. Letang insisted the 21-year-old forward remains contracted until 2029.

- With the Champions League campaign approaching, Lille expects the forward back in training this weekend. The club believes the tournament will enhance his reputation and market value.
