FC Barcelona is monitoring Moroccan midfielder Azzedine Ounahi for a move from Angers this January, according to Catalan gazette Mundo Deportivo.
The 22-year-old caught the eyes of the world after his electric performances under the Atlas Lions shirt in the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
Former Spanish coach Luis Enrique was surprised by the young midfielder’s performance, ‘Madre mía, where did this kid come from? He can really play. He surprised me. He didn’t stop running. He must be exhausted,’ Enrique said.
Sky Sports reported the Moroccan “number 8” caught the eyes of several Spanish teams before he extended his contract with Angers.
The Atlas Lions look to be a low-cost option for the Catalan side, who are riddled by financial restrictions and regulations.
Fc Barcelona midfield has been an integral part of the famous Spanish Tiki-Taka, where the likes of Gavi and Pedri currently show world class qualities, the Blaugrana will look to reinforce the interior positions, where Ounahi could even compete with the spaniards for a starting spot.
