Ayyoub Bouaddi is reportedly the subject of advanced talks between Liverpool and Lille, who are negotiating terms ahead of a possible transfer. The midfielder has long been on the radar of Liverpool, who see him as the perfect addition to their squad as they look to strengthen a key area of the pitch. Progress on talks has been made, though a final agreement is not yet in place and other clubs are said to be weighing-up whether to join the race for his signature. Liverpool are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and PSG are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. Liverpool look balanced this season - 1.68 goals scored and 1.32 goals conceded per game. Ayyoub Bouaddi would be expected to bring control and consistency to help push them to another level. Liverpool have recently been linked with Alex Scott, Darwin Nunez and Maxime Esteve while Lille have had no rumoured targets.
