Manchester City are closing in on a deal to sign young defensive midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi from Lille, with the transfer expected to be completed this week.
The 18-year-old has caught the eye with his performances in France and is viewed as a player with huge potential. City see him as a valuable addition to their squad, bringing depth and quality to the midfield. Talks between the clubs have progressed well and both sides are working to finalise the agreement quickly. Bouaddi, who has already earned caps for Morocco, is set to make a big move to the Premier League at an early stage in his career.
