Ayyoub Bouaddi is attracting the attention of major European clubs ahead of the winter transfer window. Several Premier League giants, including Tottenham, are reportedly closely monitoring his development.

Tottenham are one of several English clubs to have performed checks on Lille's French midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, with Aston Villa and Brighton also having done so. The 17-year-old is widely admired in England, where Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester United have sent scouts to watch him. AC Milan are reportedly at the front of the queue for his signature and are preparing a determined push, while Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and RB Leipzig are also keeping tabs on the situation. According to sources, English clubs will continue to track him closely this season. Any move to a Premier League team would have to wait until after his 18th birthday on October 2, 2025, and Lille are eager to extend his current contract, which is due to last until 2027. According to Transfermarkt, the player currently has a market value of €28 million.
