LOSC Lille’s Matias Fernandez-Pardo is quickly becoming one to watch headed into the summer transfer window.
Throughout the 2025/26 season, the versatile attacker scored eight goals and grabbed seven assists in 41 games, playing across Lille’s front three.
While the 21-year-old is primarily a striker, the French side have used him on both wings, with his ability not only impressing the Lille boss.
It’s understood that most of Europe’s elite clubs are also looking to the young attacker, with Manchester United set to have stiff competition for his services.
Now, Foormercato has reported that Liverpool and Bayern Munich are also joining the race.
The report goes on however, to explain that the Ligue 1 club are not keen to lose their emerging talent, even going so far to slap a significant price tag on him in the hopes of keeping him.
It’s understood Lille want £60.5 million (€70 million) to even consider a move, with the 21-year-old set to appear for Belgium in the upcoming World Cup.
As such, his valuation, £26 million (€30 million) on Transfermarkt, could soar even higher with a strong showing at the tournament in North America.
Already, there is a major profit set to be made on the £10 million (€11.5 million) move he made from KAA Gent in summer 2024.
However, for now, there doesn’t seem to be any indication of Fernandez-Pardo wanting to force a move to any of the interested clubs, with the 21-year-old happy to contiue at Lille.
With his contract lasting until 2029, Lille hold a strong position for negotiations, especially with Champions League football next season.
As such, United will need to submit a significant offer if they do intend to sign the attacker this summer.
