Boubakary Soumaré is one of the great sensations of French football this season. At just 20 years old, the midfielder has nailed down his spot in Christophe Galtier's starting XI.
Several clubs, such as Real Madrid for example, added their name to the list of suitors, although it was Newcastle who bid hardest to sign him in the January window.
'Le10Sport' says that the French midfielder rejected Newcastle's offer because he hopes to receive formal contact from Liverpool or Manchester United in the summer window.
Meanwhile, Soumaré continues to shine at a Lille side who, at the moment, are 4th in Ligue 1, a position that gives you access to the Europa League.
