Ligue 1 source claims Bayern keen on star midfielder | OneFootball

Leon Goretzka’s summer departure will leave a spot in Bayern’s midfield starting from next season. While Noël Aséko Nkili and Kennet Eichhorn are candidates within Germany to fill that gap, the Rekordmeister are also looking elsewhere for a potential replacement.

According to Abdellah Boulma, who is considered one of the experts in the French football transfer market, Bayern reignited their interest in Lille’s Ayyoub Bouaddi. The 18-year-old midfielder was previously linked with a move to the Bundesliga outfit.

However, the recently crowned Bundesliga champions aren’t the only ones showing interest in the player who is nominated for the Young Player of the Season in Ligue 1 by UNFP.

In addition to the French giants PSG, Arsenal and Manchester United are believed to be in the race. Including 25 games in European competitions, the France U21 captain has already featured 93 times for Lille’s first team.
