The future of Lille forward Nicolas Pepe is soon to become apparent according to the Ligue 1 club's president.

Speaking to French outlet La Viox du Nord - reported here via Get French Football News - Lille president Gerard Lopez said a move is imminent for the Liverpool target.

“Our work is done," he said.

"In terms of departures and arrivals, if a player leaves, we will go and get what we need.

"For Nico, it is almost done and he could have left last summer.

"It is true that there are big offers and big clubs in for him, so I think (he will leave). Aside from that, you never know in football.”

Pepe is rumoured to be available for around £70million, with Arsenal and Inter Milan also linked with him.
