View Arsenal summer 2026 transfer targets
Arsenal have been credited with an interest in signing Lille striker Matias Fernandez-Pardo, who is eyeing a new challenge, according to Foot Mercato.
The Belgian ace had a productive 2025/26 season with Les Dogues, scoring eight goals and providing six assists in all competitions.
His form caught the eye of the national side, and he received a surprise call-up for the World Cup, where he made a cameo appearance.
Foot Mercato now reveal that Fernandez-Pardo has his sights on a new challenge away from Lille in the current transfer window.
He has personally revealed his desire to the French outfit, but interested teams may have to pay at least 60 million pounds to recruit him.
Arsenal are one of the Premier League clubs keen alongside Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. It remains to be seen whether an offer is made.
Fernandez-Pardo can also comfortably operate from the left wing, which could be a reason behind the Gunners’ interest in signing him.
