Atletico Madrid, Lille and Matias Fernandez-Pardo
Monday
Atletico Madrid have submitted an opening offer of around €35m for Lille winger Matias Fernandez-Pardo. The 21-year-old Belgium international is also attracting Premier League interest, while Lille are expected to demand more before considering a summer sale.
The formal proposal moves Atletico ahead of clubs that have only monitored Fernandez-Pardo. Lille president Olivier Letang has publicly said the club wants to keep the winger, leaving Atletico to decide whether to improve its offer as competition develops.
