The PSG rushes for Ayyoub Bouaddi: the new "Lion of the Atlas" at the heart of a 50M€ battle

The capital club intends to strengthen its midfield by securing the services of the Franco-Moroccan prodigy during the next summer transfer window. Seduced by the precocity of the native of Senlis, PSG wishes to associate him with its current leaders, Vitinha and Joao Neves. Author of 17 Ligue 1 matches this season under the colors of LOSC, the player is linked to the northern club until June 2029, but remains open to a departure at the end of the season.

However, the competition promises to be formidable with the marked interest of the Premier League heavyweights. Chelsea, particularly aggressive on this file, would try to get ahead of its rivals right now to avoid a summer bidding war. While Arsenal and Inter Milan remain on the lookout, the Lille midfielder now has several prestigious options on the table for the rest of his club career.

On the international front, the saga seems to have come to an end. The Royal Moroccan Football Federation has confirmed that the Lille talent will soon join the Atlas Lions. This choice represents a significant setback for the French Football Federation, which had made the player a priority target within its youth selections.

This decision confirms the effectiveness of the Moroccan strategy to attract high-level dual nationals. After the arrivals of Brahim Diaz and Eliesse Ben Seghir, the integration of Bouaddi comes to strengthen the squad of Walid Regragui. This structural reinforcement is part of the preparation for major international events, with the 2030 World Cup organized in part on Moroccan soil in sight.
