The
22-year-old
midfielder
has
been
one
of
the
breakout
stars
of
the
2022
FIFA
World
Cup
but
it
is
understood
that
he
has
been
catching
the
eye
of
European
elites
for
a
while
now.
Ounahi
was
one
of
the
best
players
for
Morocco
as
they
surprised
everyone
by
advancing
to
the
semi-finals
of
the
World
Cup.
Ounahi
joined
French
side
Angers
in
2021
and
has
since
been
watched
a
host
of
clubs.
European
elites
like
Barcelona,
Inter,
Juventus,
Lyon
and
Paris
Saint-Germain
have
all
sent
scouts
to
watch
Ounahi
over
the
past
12
months
as
per
reports.
Since
his
move
to
Angers,
Ounahi
has
been
almost
ever-present
for
the
Ligue
1
side
having
made
47
appearances
across
competitions
so
far
scoring
twice
and
providing
two
assists.
In
this
article,
we
will
take
a
look
at
three
clubs
chasing
the
technically-gifted
midfielder.
Leicester
City:
Leicester
City
have
made
several
top-class
signings
from
France
in
the
past
and
could
explore
that
market
again
with
the
signing
of
Ounahi.
The
Foxes
have
reportedly
been
watching
the
22-year-old
closely
for
a
while
now
and
could
make
a
move
for
the
midfielder
with
a
view
to
replacing
Youri
Tielemans.
Azzedine
Ounahi
played
in
France’s
third
tier
less
than
two
years
ago.
He’s
now
at
Angers,
who
are
bottom
of
Ligue
1.
He
made
his
senior
Morocco
debut
in
January.He
lit
up
the
midfield
in
wins
vs.
Belgium,
Spain
and
Portugal.Now
the
22-year-old
is
in
a
World
Cup
semifinal

Southampton:
Southampton
are
also
known
for
their
flawless
scouting
network
and
have
been
avid
admirers
of
Ounahi
as
per
reports.
The
Saints
are
in
need
of
adding
more
quality
to
their
squad
as
soon
as
possible
having
struggled
at
the
wrong
end
of
the
table
and
Ounahi
could
be
a
solid
addition
to
their
side.
Newcastle
United:
Despite
all
the
financial
backing
from
their
new
Saudi
Arabian
owners,
Newcastle
United
have
not
really
splashed
the
cash
as
much
as
expected.
Rather,
they
have
taken
a
different
approach
in
the
market.
The
Magpies
have
been
monitoring
Ounahi
closely
for
a
while
now
and
could
be
set
to
make
a
move.
