You issue the contract transfer request from the third party address.

You could use "transferFrom" method if your ERC20 contract supports that but for that you might have to set allowance for the spender and to perform that action you will need gas as well, so its safe to assume you will need to fund some ETH to account that holds tokens for gas.
