Bouaddi Responds to Club Interest: My Full Focus is with Morocco in the World Cup

The Moroccan international Ayoub Bouaddi confirmed that his full focus is currently on helping his national team in their journey in the 2026 World Cup, despite the increasing interest from several European clubs looking to sign him in the upcoming period.

In statements to "The Athletic" newspaper, the Moroccan national team midfielder explained that he prefers to postpone discussions about his football future until after the World Cup participation concludes, saying: "At the moment, I am focused only on the World Cup and cannot answer this topic now."

Bouaddi added: "Of course, I'm very happy to know that some clubs are interested in me, but currently my focus is entirely on the Moroccan national team, and we will try to give our all to be at the best possible level."

This statement comes amidst the growing attention the young player is receiving, following the impressive performances he delivered at the start of his journey with the "Atlas Lions," particularly during the match against Brazil in the opening of Morocco's group stage matches, which ended in a (1-1) draw.

Bouadi received widespread acclaim from followers and critics alike, thanks to his strong presence in the midfield and his ability to assert his personality against one of the world's leading teams, making him one of the standout rising stars in the tournament so far.
