Moroccan midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi's World Cup run has ended, but he's cemented himself as a top young talent, attracting interest from major European clubs. Lille's president, Olivier Letang, suggests the 18-year-old could be worth over £100m, potentially more than players like Tonali. Manchester United are being encouraged to sign Bouaddi, as other top teams including Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Arsenal are also reportedly interested.
