Man United place 60 million midfielder on transfer shortlist but face intense competition
"Bouaddi is a remarkably talented young midfielder. He is capable of playing as a deep-lying midfielder or a central midfielder, a versatile profile that has drawn comparisons to some of Europe's top young midfield talents. His rise through Lille's ranks has been nothing short of meteoric. After joining their academy in 2021, he has steadily worked his way into the first team and has become a regular starter over the past two seasons."
"United's interest in Bouaddi isn't new, but this season the case appears more concrete. Recent reports suggest the club's recruitment team, led by Christopher Vivell, have pushed his name high up the list of potential summer targets. Ayyoub Bouaddi has progressed well in his young career At just 18, Bouaddi represents a long-term investment. His age, combined with his maturity on the ball and potential to get even better, mathces with United's increasingly youth-focused recruitment philosophy."
"United's midfield has been under scrutiny, with uncertainty around several players, both in terms of form and long-term status. Kobbie Mainoo faces an uncertain future at the club and it has become clear this season that manager Ruben Amorim does not prefer him. Manuel Ugarte has struggled to settle in the Premier League since his move from Paris Saint-Germain and he could be heading out of the club in the near future."
Manchester United are monitoring Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi as part of a planned midfield overhaul ahead of the next season. Bouaddi can play as a deep-lying or central midfielder and progressed rapidly after joining Lille's academy in 2021, becoming a regular starter over the past two seasons. United's recruitment team, led by Christopher Vivell, has elevated him among potential summer targets. At 18, Bouaddi represents a long-term investment whose age, ball maturity and growth potential align with United's youth-focused recruitment. United's midfield faces uncertainty — Kobbie Mainoo's future is unclear, Manuel Ugarte has struggled to settle, and Casemiro may require a long-term replacement. Bouaddi also attracts interest from other top European clubs, including Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.
