La Liga
The FC Barcelona has put one of the great revelations of Ligue 1 on its radar: Maghnes Akliouche. At just 22 years old, the talented attacking midfielder from AS Monaco has caught attention for his quality and impact on French football. His performance this season, where he has accumulated four goals and five assists in 21 matches, has not gone unnoticed, especially after his brilliant display in Barcelona's European debut in the Champions League.
The young Frenchman was key in Barcelona's only defeat in this edition of the Champions League. In that match at Stade Louis II, Akliouche scored the first goal of the game with a precise shot that beat Marc-André ter Stegen. Although Lamine Yamal equalized before halftime, Monaco ended up winning 2-1. Eric García's early dismissal affected the match, but Akliouche's role left a significant mark.
Akliouche open to Barcelona's interest
What has generated more interest at Can Barça is a video circulating on social media, where the player expresses his admiration for the Catalan club, as reported by MundoDeportivo. In the recording, made a few years ago, Akliouche confessed his wish to play for Barcelona someday, noting that the Spanish league is his favorite due to its style of play. Additionally, he made clear his admiration for Lionel Messi, whom he considers the greatest player of all time.
The young player's market value, estimated at 40 million euros according to Transfermarkt, and his ability to dribble, create play, and finish, make him an attractive target for Barcelona. The Barcelona sporting direction is already assessing the possibility of making a move for this prospect who could fit perfectly into the Catalan playing style.
