Lille president Olivier Létang responded to Meunier's departure, stating that the player's salary demands exceeded the framework established by the club.

Meunier previously told L'Équipe that his failure to stay was "more of a decision by Olivier Létang." The Belgian defender has since joined Sunderland as a free agent.

Létang stated at a press conference that if a player demands "four times the salary of Lille's highest-paid player," the club has no choice but to refuse, as he has set a wage ceiling he does not wish to exceed.
