Juventus are the latest team to show an interest in Ayyoub Bouaddi, who AC Milan also seem to be very keen on.
According to Tuttosport, the Old Lady’s eyes are on the ‘new Rabiot’. In recent weeks, Juventus scouts have been watching Lille closely, a club with which the Bianconeri management boasts an excellent relationship, as evidenced by the Edon Zhegrova deal concluded in the final days of the summer.
This is why Juventus’ interest in midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi – whose contract expires in 2027 – shouldn’t be overlooked or be that surprising. This situation makes him even more tempting and attractive as a transfer target.
Juventus vs. Milan for Bouaddi?
Despite the fact that very few 17-year-olds are starting players in Europe’s top leagues, Bruno Genesio has had no qualms about handing the keys to his midfield to a player born in 2007. And Bouaddi has responded remarkably, delivering excellent performances.
Milan’s technical director Geoffrey Moncada was the first to make a move back in April, attempting to bring him to Milan. However, Igli Tare and Massimiliano Allegri prioritised bringing in Ardon Jashari and then Adrien Rabiot, even if the teenager remains on the radar.
Rabiot is the player Ayyoub is increasingly being compared to, both because of his technical and physical attributes. Perhaps the two could soon find themselves either as team-mates or as adversaries. However, ‘half of Europe’ like what they see from Bouaddi too.
