Milan have reportedly set their sights on teenage Lille talent Ayyoub Bouaddi and could have a secret weapon in the presence of coach Paulo Fonseca.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Rossoneri are eager to snap up the sensation who only turned 17 last month.

The midfielder has joint French and Moroccan citizenship and is a product of the LOSC youth academy, working his way up to the senior squad last season.

So far this term, Bouaddi has made 12 competitive appearances, including three in the Champions League, where he provided one assist.

Although he has already attracted interest from numerous clubs, Milan believe they have the advantage because it was Fonseca who gave the teenager his big push up to the senior squad last term.

The midfielder made 18 appearances under Fonseca and would be eager to work with the tactician at San Siro.

It remains to be seen if Milan would pounce in the January transfer window or wait for the summer.

The asking price is just going to keep rising and is already at €25m after a strong performance in their victory over Real Madrid.
