Bouaddi, another Leny Yoro: United and Real Madrid in the race for the signing
Leny Yoro's case could be repeated and Bouaddi is the one both clubs have their eyes on
A couple of summers ago, the signing of a footballer with great potential like Leny Yoro seemed like a reality for the Merengue side. However, at the last minute, he ended up moving to Manchester United, where things aren't going as well for him as they are for the English team. Now, it seems the pattern could repeat itself with Ayyoub Bouaddi from Lille, who is on the radar of both clubs.
It should be noted that the departure of the defender who is now part of the Manchester club seemed completely set for Real Madrid. Now, the French club, knowing it has these two offers after him, will want to keep the player beyond 2027. This could set a new sale price that could reach between €30 and €40 million (about $32.8M and $43.8M).
Another case like Yoro's
At the time, the young Frenchman seemed to be one of the most promising defenders in the entire French league and that's why he caught Madrid's attention. The British club paid over €60 million (about $65.6M) for this player's signing at the time, thus taking him away from the Merengue side. However, things didn't turn out as he wanted, since last season he managed to play just 2,000 minutes in 33 matches.

Now, the case of the 17-year-old Lille footballer seems to be back on the radar of both clubs, with an approximate value of €28 million (about $30.6M). Last season, he was a very important player for his team's midfield structure. In fact, he managed to play just over 1,800 minutes in 36 matches at 16 years of age.
Reports from Madrid's scouts indicate that he is a footballer with very good qualities and that he could become even more decisive. He is expected to be a key figure in France's midfield in the coming years due to his progress. However, if he really extends his contract as the French club wants, this could greatly complicate the white club's options.
It depends on the player
With this interest now directly focused on him, he must decide whether he wants to stay in France a while longer or if he wants to make the move to either of these two clubs. However, there is no discussion that the best possible decision is to join the biggest institution in the world of soccer.
