Arsenal have reportedly made its move for one of the breakout stars of the 2026 World Cup, as Mikel Arteta looks to bolster his midfield options. The Gunners have apparently approached Lille regarding Morocco international Ayyoub Bouaddi, who has seen his stock skyrocket following an impressive display against Brazil. Gunners step up pursuit of Ligue 1 prodigy Arsenal have reportedly made a concrete approach to sign Bouaddi as they look to beat Europes elite to one of the most exciting talents in world football. The 18-year-old has become a primary target for the North London club, with recent reports indicating that the Premier League champions are ready to accelerate their plans. According to Sky Sports Switzerland, Arsenal have been actively working on a deal to sign Bouaddi for several months and the Premier League champions have maintained regular contact with the midfielders entourage since January last year. The long-term scouting mission has now evolved into a formal pursuit as the teenager proves his worth on the biggest stage of all. Arteta's pitch to Morocco international Arteta is said to be a huge admirer of the youngsters technical profile and versatility in the middle of the park. The report adds that Arsenal has made it clear to Bouaddi and his representatives that he would be considered an important part of Artetas squad straight away. This path to first-team football is expected to be a major factor in the player's decision-making process. The strategic move to involve the player immediately has seemingly paid off in the early stages of negotiations. Arsenals message is said to have resonated with Bouaddi, and the Morocco international has expressed his interest in the prospect of a move to Arsenal. However, securing his signature will require navigating a significant financial obstacle set by his current club. Lille set price tag for World Cup star With his performances for Morocco drawing global attention, Lille are in no rush to sell their prized asset on the cheap. Further talks between Arsenal and Bouaddi are already scheduled for after the World Cup, while Lille are demanding a 70 million (60.4m) transfer fee for the midfielder. The French side are aware that his value could continue to rise as the tournament progresses in North America. Bouaddi was one of the standout performers in Moroccos opening 1-1 draw against Brazil, holding his own against some of the world's most established midfielders. Of all the central midfielders on show, Bouaddi was the one who showed the most maturity in controlling the ball for Morocco. Competition from Paris as race heats up Arsenal is not the only club looking to secure the 18-year-old's services this summer. There is reportedly strong competition from Paris Saint-Germain, but the fact it plays in Ligue 1 could work in the English club's favor, given Lille would be reluctant to sell to a direct rival. Chelsea, meanwhile, is another club who have been linked with the player.

Iran's head coach Amir Ghalenoei said his team are simply at the World Cup to 'represent the respectful people of Iran, be it the Iranians inside Iran or the Iranian diaspora' (Patrick T. FALLON)Iran's coach Amir Ghalenoei said on Sunday political tensions and visa issues have damaged his side's preparations for the World Cup but insisted his players will not "pay attention to any of the hype."Iran have arrived at the tournament under the shadow of a bitter diplomatic row, after the United States -- in military conflict with Iran for months -- refused to issue visas for some team support staff.They play their opener against New Zealand in Los Angeles on Monday, marking the first time that a World Cup host has hosted a country with which it is at war.Protests are planned outside the stadium by members of the Iranian diaspora opposed to the nation's hardline regime, and there have been threats that the Iran team could walk off the pitch if anti-government banners are displayed."We are here to perform a good match, a high-quality match. We don't pay attention to any of the hype and anything that goes on around us," Ghalenoei said in a press conference in response to a question from AFP."Naturally, all teams have their own problems, and in many countries, many things happen that have nothing to do with football."The coach said his team are simply at the World Cup to "represent the respectful people of Iran, be it the Iranians inside Iran or the Iranian diaspora.""We are not political people... football is separate from politics," said Ghalenoei.The press conference took place barely an hour after a peace deal between the US and Iran was announced, bringing an "immediate and permanent" end to miltary operations on all fronts.Controversy surrounding the Iran team has drawn headlines but is far from the only political issue affecting the World Cup that the US is co-hosting with Mexico and Canada.Somali referee Omar Artan was denied entry to the US for the World Cup, as have been many fans."It's not just Iran that has been impacted, as you know," said star striker Mehdi Taremi."Others, including a referee, have been impacted."He said the tension surrounding the tournament "undermines that joy and it undermines the message of FIFA or people, which is about football that brings about peace.""I have felt the tension from the first moment we arrived at this World Cup, and whenever at any tournament there is tension, of course, we don't have the same beautiful experience that we always talk about, about peace, joy for the people of every country."Iran was originally supposed to base their training camp in the US, but switched to Tijuana in Mexico at late notice."We arrived late, and we didn't have enough time to adjust... it will affect us, but God willing, I know that my players are very determined to do their utmost and show the highest quality," said Ghalenoei."Of course, our camp was changed twice, first it was in the United States, then we were transferred to Mexico and of course that impacts us," the coach added."But we Iranians make opportunities out of hardship, and we don't think about anything other than bringing joy to our people, and we will do our utmost, and the rest is up to God the Almighty."Iran has never reached the knockout rounds of a World Cup.
