Ayyoub Bouaddi has already put pen to paper on his deal to play for Manchester City – and now he’ll be looking to sign his name in the hearts of Blues fans.
Bouaddi has already achieved so much in his fledgling career and he’s still only 18.
He became the youngest footballer to ever play for Lille when he made his senior debut just a few days after turning 16 in 2023.
And then broke a record held by Eden Hazard after making 50 Ligue 1 appearances for Lille at the age of just 18.
On the international stage, he impressed greatly with Morocco in this summer’s World Cup as the Atlas Lions beat Netherlands and hosts Canada in the knockout stages before succumbing to the formidable France.
All this means the potential is high for Bouaddi to shine in the sky blue shirt in the years ahead.
And with Enzo Maresca – a backer and believer in youth development - shaping his progress and growth, the future is bright indeed.
Watch our video celebrating Bouaddi’s arrival in the player above.
