Lille are strongly pursuing Benjamin Nygren. The club views Nygren as a project player with significant potential for improvement, and as a footballer capable of increasing in value while contributing on the pitch. Benjamin Nygren's current wages are reported to be between £15,000 and £20,000 per week, and are likely to rise significantly with a move to a top league. Agent meetings have reportedly taken place privately in London.

Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille are eager to make a significant investment in a player like Benjamin Nygren.

Benjamin Nygren, Celtic's top scorer with 18 goals and seven assists in 45 appearances, is expected to attract interest from clubs in Europe and England at the end of the season. The 24-year-old Swedish winger, who has 7 caps and 3 goals for Sweden, joined from Nordsjaelland for €1.5 million last summer and now has an Estimated Transfer Value of €6.6m; his performance in the Scottish Premiership this season includes 14 goals and 4 assists in 28 appearances. Former Aberdeen CEO Keith Wyness stated that Celtic will have no choice but to sell the forward and predicted that he will be acquired in the summer. Celtic are expected to attempt to increase Nygren's price, given his importance and his contract which runs until 2029, and reports in March 2026 suggested that a big offer would be required for the club to sell him. Although there has been no concrete interest in the player yet, SciSports’ Career Advice tool has identified several potential destinations, assigning Fiorentina a Club Fit score of 77, Bournemouth a 76, Valencia a 75, and LOSC Lille a 74.
