Ayyoub Bouaddi Morocco World Cup 2026 Transfer News
The saga is coming to an end. The young Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, long torn between France and Morocco, would have decided to defend the colors of the Lions of the Atlas. His integration for the 2026 World Cup would already be underway.
Official confirmation would only be a matter of days away. Armed with a convincing season with LOSC, marked by more than thirty appearances at just 18 years old, the talented Dogué is about to make the big leap. According to a Canal+ journalist, the player’s announcement was even expected following Lille’s narrow victory in Monaco (1-0) this Sunday.

Faced with this imminence, the Moroccan Football Federation anticipated the event behind the scenes. Mohamed Ouahbi’s staff would have directly integrated him into the pre-list of 55 names that was to be submitted to FIFA this Monday for the World Cup.
This outcome validates the steady courtship conducted by Moroccan authorities for several months. In mid-March, Mohamed Ouahbi had even made the trip to Lille to personally meet the young talent and his entourage. A crucial visit that allows Morocco to score another major coup in the dual-national market, following the recent call-up of Rayane Bounida.

Unless there is a last-minute reversal, the midfielder, praised for his great technical maturity, could debut in his new jersey during warm-up matches against Madagascar in early June in Rabat, or against Norway on June 7 in New York.
