We're referring to Abdellah Ouazane, a young 16-year-old Moroccan talent arriving from Ajax. His contract was ending and he doesn't seem willing to renew it, which put him on the market. There were more interested teams, but Fabrizio Romano reveals that the deal with Los Merengues is closed.

Real Madrid has managed to move well in the market to secure his services. The plan is for him to sign starting July 1, when he'll be a free agent after parting ways with Ajax. Also, despite being 16 years old, he'll join Castilla under the orders of Álvaro Arbeloa.

A generational talent reminiscent of Bellingham

Ouazane is considered a generational talent and a signing that Real Madrid had been closely following. He was the best player at the last U-17 Africa Cup, where he dazzled everyone with his quality. That had put him in the spotlight due to his contractual situation with Ajax.

Real Madrid has seen in him a player reminiscent of Bellingham because of his great physical condition.Powerful, with good height, but he also has quality with the ball at his feet. He finds it easy to break lines and move looking for gaps between opponents.

One of his greatest strengths is knowing how to thread passes to his teammates, which makes him an important asset in attack. Real Madrid has secured a signing that many teams wanted. He'll arrive at Valdebebas for free, as a free agent, in a great move by Los Blancos.
