Lille’s Franco-Moroccan central midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi is being linked with a move to Paris St-Germain, with the Ligue 1 champions reportedly tracking the 18-year-old ahead of a potential summer approach.
Born in Senlis and standing at 1.85m, Bouaddi has emerged as one of Lille’s most intriguing academy products, operating primarily as a right-footed central midfielder. Listed with dual nationality – Morocco and France – he is viewed as a long-term prospect for both club and country, and his progress in Ligue 1 has brought him onto PSG’s radar.
Data from Transfermarkt values Bouaddi at €50.00m, underlining the level of expectation around the teenager despite his limited senior experience. The latest speculation, logged on 13 June 2026, has him moving from Lille to PSG within Ligue 1, although the probability of the transfer is still marked as “?” and there is no indication yet of an agreed fee.
Bouaddi currently wears the number 32 shirt for LOSC Lille, where he is registered as a central midfielder. His contract situation is unclear, with no public expiry date listed; that uncertainty has fuelled talk that Lille could come under pressure to sell in the next windows rather than risk him running his deal down and, in time, edging towards free-agent territory.
Recent match data highlights his growing involvement, though detailed statistics from individual fixtures – such as specific opponents, dates, scorelines and performance metrics – are not publicly specified in the sourced material.
With his blend of height, technique and versatility in the middle of the park, a move to PSG would represent a dramatic escalation in Bouaddi’s career. If completed, it could define his trajectory at the top level and shape his reputation as one of the most coveted young midfielders in French football.
