Ayyoub Bouaddi’s name is once again being linked with Juventus as the club continues to plan for the future.
New Juventus CEO Damien Comolli has already made first contact with the 17-year-old midfielder from Lille.
Bouaddi, born in 2007, is considered one of the brightest young talents in France and has often been compared to Adrien Rabiot.
Despite his young age, Bouaddi has already made his Ligue 1 debut with Lille. He is described as a modern “box-to-box” midfielder strong physically, skilled technically, and confident with the ball.

His ability to win challenges, start attacks, and make dangerous runs into the box has made him one of the most exciting players of his generation.
Juventus know they face tough competition from top clubs in England and Spain, who are also scouting the youngster.
However, their strong relationship with Lille, proven during the recent deal for Edon Zhegrova, could work in their favor.

The Turin side want to combine experience with fresh energy in midfield, and Bouaddi perfectly fits their long-term strategy. Signing him would give Juventus both immediate quality and big future potential.
Reports suggest that January could be the right time for Juventus to make a serious move and try to secure the French teenager before rivals step in.
