Juventus will compete with Liverpool, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur to sign 17-year-old French midfield sensation Ayyoub Bouaddi from LOSC Lille.
According to an update by Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur, Ayyoub Bouaddi is the subject of interest of Juventus. The Serie A giants are keen on reinforcing their midfield unit next year, and they have set their sights on the LOSC Lille wonderkid. However, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur are also keen on securing his services.
The rise and rise of Ayyoub Bouaddi
Ayyoub Bouaddi is the latest prodigy to rise in prominence in his homeland. The Senlis native has spent his formative years thus far in France, starting his youth career at AFC Creil before graduating from the youth division at LOSC Lille. He has already become a regular for the Ligue 1 outfit despite his nascent age.
The 17-year-old midfield sensation has made over 50 appearances thus far for Lille, chipping in with three assists. Meanwhile, Bouaddi’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several European bigwigs. Liverpool, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Juventus are among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.
High in demand
The French midfield sensation has been on Liverpool’s radar for a long time. The continued interest is understandable, as Arne Slot can do with more quality in the middle of the park despite the positive performances by Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch. So, Bouaddi is a viable target for Liverpool.
Meanwhile, Manchester United’s interest in Ayyoub Bouaddi makes sense. The Red Devils are scouring the market for a versatile midfielder, with the lack of quality in the middle of the park holding them back. So, Bouaddi is an option worth considering for Manchester United. As for Tottenham Hotspur, Yves Bissouma has no future at the North London club, compelling them to look for a midfielder.
Meanwhile, Juventus’s interest in the LOSC Lille wonderkid is understandable. Manuel Locatelli faces an uncertain future at the Serie A club amid his links with several Premier League outfits. So, Bouaddi is an option worth considering for Juventus.
Several other bigwigs are also keen on signing the 17-year-old French midfield sensation. It will be interesting to see if Juventus can beat the high-profile Premier League clubs to Bouaddi’s signature in the coming months.
