According to L'Équipe, the transfer of Lille's Ayyoub Bouaddi, 18, to Manchester City could speed up in the coming days.
The development is linked to Rodri's move to Barcelona, with the prospective deal for Bouaddi potentially a record sale for a Ligue 1 departure.

LOSC president Olivier Létang often likens the market to a puzzle. In that context, Rodri, the 2024 Ballon d'Or, leaving City for Barcelona was viewed as the last missing piece to finalise Bouaddi's switch to the Citizens.
Bouaddi featured for Lille in January in a 1-0 Europa League win over Fribourg.
The midfielder is under contract with Lille until 2029.
