It has seemed for the last few weeks that Bouaddi has been close to finally becoming a City player. Now another update has emerged stating that Lille and Manchester City are set for a new round of talks to conclude the deal that will bring Ayyoub Bouaddi to the Etihad. Frankly, it is a deal that City have to complete, so hopefully City’s move for Bouaddi is completed as soon as possible.

Hopefully, City can wrap up the signing of Bouaddi quickly as they have work to do in the transfer market.
Manchester City will be eager to complete negotiations with Lille to sign Ayyoub Bouaddi. The Moroccan midfielder will have a crucial role to play for Enzo Maresca’s side. Although Bouaddi is only 18 years of age he has the talent and pedigree to quickly become an important contributor for City. City are desperate to bolster their midfield given which players have left the club this summer. Signing Ayyoub Bouaddi would help begin to fill the holes in City’s midfield.
Outside of that, the final two weeks of the summer transfer window look to be a busy time for Manchester City. There is a possibility that a host of players will depart the club that will need to be replaced. The sooner the Bouaddi deal is wrapped up, the quicker City can move on to other transfer targets.
It is far from ideal that Manchester City are working against the clock to bolster Enzo Maresca’s squad. But that is the hand they’ve been dealt and the quicker the Bouaddi deal is completed, the better. Hopefully, the upcoming talks between City and Lille end with Bouaddi getting the green light to become a City player.
