Lille OSC is facing a dilemma with Ayyoub Bouaddi, valued at €100m. The 18-year-old midfielder has seen his stock skyrocket after the World Cup.
What happened?
Mehdi Benatia, the former international, revealed that Bouaddi is now worth €100m. This estimate has been confirmed by talks between Manchester City and Lille OSC.
Why is this important for Lille OSC?
The club must decide whether selling Bouaddi at a high price would allow them to replenish their coffers and fund the rest of the transfer market. But losing such a talent so early would undoubtedly leave a bitter taste.
What comes next?
Negotiations between the clubs will be intense, with a high starting point set by Benatia. Lille OSC must find a balance between its sporting ambitions and financial needs.
