Atletico Madrid has offered €35 million to Lille for the international Spanish-Belgian forward Matías Fernández-Pardo. According to the sports newspaper 'L'Equipe', the red-and-white club has put this amount, including variables, on the table for the 21-year-old player who was with the Belgian national team in the last World Cup.
The president of Lille, Olivier Létang, could try to negotiate a higher price in the face of interest from English Premier League clubs in Fernández-Pardo, who was mentioned in the same newspaper a few days ago as having a contract until 2029 and his departure not being on the table.
Atletico Madrid is looking to strengthen its team for the next season, after finishing last season in fourth place in the league with 69 points, 21 wins, 6 draws, and 11 losses in 38 games. The team has scored 62 goals and received 44 in the current season, with a +18 goal difference.
Next season, Atletico Madrid will seek to improve its position in the league, as it is currently 25 points behind the leaders of Barcelona. The team's next game will be against Osasuna in Pamplona, on February 14, 2027.
