AC Milan Joins Race to Sign Moroccan World Cup Star Azzedine Ounahi

The list of suitors for Azzedine Ounahi is expanding. In addition to Napoli, Leeds, OM, Barcelona and Almeria, AC Milan is also showing interest in the Moroccan international.

AC Milan wants to secure the services of the Angers SCO midfielder whose contract runs until June 2026. The Italian club will join the list of at least three other clubs seeking to sign the 22-year-old player, report international media. The two other Premier League clubs that have expressed interest in signing Ounahi have not yet been named, reports Sky Sports.

Thanks to Azzedine and his teammates, Morocco has achieved historic and exceptional feats in Qatar by becoming the first African and Arab team to reach the semi-finals of a World Cup. Currently, his market value is estimated at 15 million euros, reports Transfer Markt. The 22-year-old midfielder has "very strong" ball control and "strong" dribbling skills as well as a strong contribution to defense, notes the Who Scored website.
