Modena are being linked with a move for Amiens SC centre-forward Yanis Rafii as the Serie B side explore a deal for the Franco-Moroccan youngster.
Reports in Italy and France suggest Modena are monitoring the 20-year-old, who is currently on the books at Ligue 2 club Amiens. The likelihood of a transfer is unclear, with the reported probability of the move listed as “?”, but Rafii’s contractual situation at the Stade de la Licorne could be key, with no expiry date publicly registered and the possibility of a future free-agent scenario not being ruled out.
Rafii, valued at €200,000 on Transfermarkt, is seen as a relatively low-cost option for Modena as they look to add depth in attack. The Reims-born forward, who wears the number 19 shirt for Amiens, stands at 1.87m and operates primarily as a central striker, using his right foot.
The France- and Morocco-eligible attacker, born on 26 June 2005, has been developing within the Amiens set-up, featuring for the club in Ligue 2. He is listed with dual nationality – France and Morocco – which could keep future international eligibility open for either country.
No specific fee has been indicated for any potential deal, and there is currently no confirmation of advanced talks between the clubs. With his market value relatively modest, Rafii could represent a speculative addition for Modena, who are seeking to strengthen their options in Serie B without significant financial outlay.
Recent detailed match data on Rafii’s performances, including opponent, date and scoreline, has not been disclosed in the latest reports, but his profile as a tall, developing centre-forward continues to draw attention. If a move to Modena does materialise, it could offer Rafii a fresh platform in Italy to accelerate his career and enhance his reputation beyond French football.
