Ayyoub Bouaddi: the Franco-Moroccan talent on Arsenal's radar

The young Franco-Moroccan midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, just 18 years old, continues to attract the attention of Europe's top clubs after his breakthrough season with Lille OSC.

According to Foot Mercato, several continental giants are monitoring the player, including Manchester United and Real Madrid, but it is Arsenal who appear closest to making a move. The English club has reportedly already begun efforts to secure his transfer, although no official offer has yet been submitted.

Under contract with Lille until 2029, Bouaddi has featured in 17 Ligue 1 matches this season, providing one assist, and has established himself as a regular starter at just 18. Lille are reportedly demanding €60 million for his transfer this winter.
