Psg eyes ayyoub bouaddi: the €70m valuation for the ligue 1 midfield talent
Paris Saint-Germain is actively looking to bolster its squad this summer, with a particular focus on promising talents within Ligue 1. Among their key targets is Ayyoub Bouaddi, the young midfielder from LOSC. With three years remaining on his current contract, securing his services would necessitate a substantial offer to persuade LOSC and its president, Olivier Létang, to part ways with their 18-year-old gem. Indications suggest that a fee in the region of €70M could be sufficient to facilitate this high-profile transfer.
Speaking earlier this June, LOSC President Olivier Létang conveyed his strong desire to retain Ayyoub Bouaddi, who has attracted significant interest, notably from PSG. When questioned about the prospect of a substantial bid from the capital club, Létang stated, “We will discuss it with Ayyoub, to be very honest, because that was also the subject of our earlier conversations.”
LOSC seeks an “extraordinary” transfer fee
Despite extending his contract until June 2029 just last December, Ayyoub Bouaddi could still depart LOSC, but any interested clubs must present an exceptionally compelling offer. Létang previously emphasized, “We have had very regular discussions with Ayyoub. Our primary objective is to keep him. However, if an offer of an extraordinary amount materializes, we could consider his departure.” When pressed on whether a figure above €50M would suffice, the president was unequivocal: “No, that is not enough. We are far from the amount that would allow us to let Ayyoub leave.”
Bouaddi’s valuation reportedly set at €70M
The valuation for the Moroccan international, who boasts three national team appearances, has reportedly been set at €70M. However, PSG faces stiff competition from Arsenal in this pursuit. The Gunners have reportedly identified Bouaddi as a priority target to reinforce their midfield and have maintained consistent contact with the player and his representatives since January 2025. While Ayyoub Bouaddi is understood to have a preference for Paris, he has also been receptive to the vision presented by the London club’s management, indicating his openness to a potential move to England.
