"The highly-rated 18-year-old midfielder is emerging as one of the most exciting young talents in Europe at the moment, having already amassed over 70 first-team appearances for Lille. As reported earlier this week, Chelsea are making Bouaddi a top target as they look to continue to strengthen with the best young players from around the world. Meanwhile, RMC Sport reported yesterday on Arsenal already holding initial talks over a move for the Frenchman ahead of him likely signing a new contract."
"Bouaddi has signed until 2029, but it seems his long-term future at the club could still be in some doubt, according to the RMC Sport report. It's possible that Lille are well aware that they're unlikely to be able to keep Bouaddi for much longer, but they just want the security of being able to ramp up his asking price without the fear of his contract running down soon and thereby weakening their negotiating position."
