Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi has reportedly agreed to join the Moroccan national team starting from next June.

Born in France to Moroccan parents, the young talent is eligible to represent both "Les Bleus" and the "Lions of the Atlas."

According to Moroccan outlet Almountakahb, the northern club's prodigy is leaning towards an international career with Morocco, even though he remains in France's plans for the post-2026 World Cup.

This would be a fantastic addition for the African vice-champions, who never tire of scouting dual-national gems.

At just 18 years old, Ayyoub Bouaddi is considered one of Europe's brightest prospects. He is being courted by several of the continent's heavyweights, including Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain.

This season, he has featured in 29 matches across all competitions, providing a single assist.
