AS Monaco midfielder Maghnes Akliouche has emerged as a key target for both Bayer Leverkusen and Arsenal, with the two European giants reportedly preparing to battle for the highly rated Algerian international.

Akliouche has drawn serious interest following an impressive campaign in Ligue 1, with both clubs identifying the 23-year-old as a player capable of strengthening their attacking options.

While no official bids have yet been submitted, the competition for his signature is expected to intensify in the coming weeks.

German champions Bayer Leverkusen are believed to be particularly keen, with manager Erik ten Hag continuing to shape a squad capable of competing on multiple fronts.

Akliouche’s blend of pace, technical finesse and tactical awareness fits seamlessly into Leverkusen’s style of play.

Seen as a long-term asset with immediate impact potential, he could add valuable depth to the side’s attacking rotations.

Leverkusen’s interest is aligned with their broader recruitment strategy, which has increasingly focused on investing in emerging African and Franco-African talent.

Club officials see Akliouche as a player whose best years are still ahead, and who could be molded into a key contributor at the highest level of European football.

However, Premier League contenders Arsenal have also been keeping a close eye.

Acording to sources, the Gunners have dispatched scouts on multiple occasions this season to monitor Akliouche’s performances.

The reports were positive, highlighting his ability to find space between defensive lines, execute incisive passes, and create opportunities in the final third—attributes that have not gone unnoticed by Mikel Arteta’s recruitment team.

Speaking to local media, former Algerian international Nourredine Kourichi suggested Akliouche could yet remain at Monaco for another season, but acknowledged the growing interest in the player.

“Akliouche could also stay at Monaco for another season,” he said, though adding that the club may struggle to hold onto him if serious offers begin to materialise.
