Algeria international Hicham Boudaoui has emerged as a top transfer target for Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Premier League giants are seeking to strengthen their squad for the new season following an inconsistent performance, particularly in the top-flight.
Manchester United has however, identified Hicham Boudaoui, who plies his trade for OGC Nice as a perfect player to solidify this team.
The 25-year-old has caught the eye of Manchester United with his tactical discipline, versatility and football intelligence. His high work rate, positional awareness and ball-winning ability have impressed United’s scouts.
Given the injuries and irregularities affecting United’s present midfield, Boudaoui’s versatility may be essential in handling difficult schedule with many competitions.
However, Manchester United faces a stiffer competition from Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brighton and Sevilla, who are also keeping tabs on the enterprising midfielder.
Although Nice hold a strong position with his contract running until June 2027, offers above €10 million could tempt the Ligue 1 side to negotiate.
Boudaoui, who began his career in Algeria with Paradou AC, has steadily evolved into one of Ligue 1’s most dependable midfielders, earning regular national team call-ups and widespread admiration.
With Christian Eriksen, Casemiro, and Scott McTominay all facing uncertain futures at Old Trafford, the Red Devils are eyeing Boudaoui as a cornerstone for a younger, more technically sound midfield.
