Lille president suggests Liverpool may pay over £100m for Bouaddi

Summary

Lille president Olivier Letang indicated Liverpool might need to exceed £100m to secure Ayyoub Bouaddi. The young midfielder, currently performing well for Morocco at the World Cup, has drawn interest from several clubs. Letang referenced recent transfers to imply Bouaddi’s high valuation, despite concerns over the price for an untested player in the Premier League. Liverpool, reportedly scouting Bouaddi since September 2025, may reconsider their options amidst the inflated transfer market for young talent.
