Arsenal will rival Liverpool for coveted Ligue 1 winger

Arsenal is now in the race for Lille winger Matias Fernandez-Pardo, as he is expected to leave the French club this summer. The move could bring him to the Premier League, where he has previously been linked with Liverpool, but Caught Offside reports Arsenal are also pursuing him. Both clubs want to bolster their wide options ahead of the new campaign. Arsenal have already signed Christos Tzolis to add quality on the wing and are reportedly preparing a larger move for Vinicius Junior, but Fernandez-Pardo could be another addition. The 21-year-old would be weighing two top English projects as he decides between Arsenal and Liverpool.
