Lille Set Sights on Feyenoord’s Anis Hadj Moussa Amid Premier League Interest

Lille OSC has made Feyenoord’s 22-year-old winger Anis Hadj Moussa their primary transfer target this month. The French club is eager to bolster their attacking options, with an eye on both immediate impact and long-term planning.

Lille’s interest in Hadj Moussa is twofold. Firstly, they anticipate the departure of Edon Zhegrova in the summer and view the Algerian international as a potential successor. Additionally, with Zhegrova currently sidelined for approximately six weeks due to a pubis injury, Hadj Moussa could provide immediate cover in the attacking third.

As Lille aims to secure a top-four finish in Ligue 1 and progress in the UEFA Champions League, strengthening their wing options has become a priority. While reports suggest that Hadj Moussa is keen on joining Lille, no agreement has been reached between the French club and Feyenoord.

Complicating matters, Premier League giants Liverpool and Chelsea have also expressed interest in the talented winger. Their potential involvement could turn this transfer pursuit into a competitive race for Hadj Moussa’s signature.

As negotiations continue, all eyes will be on Lille’s efforts to secure their top target amidst growing interest from England’s top flight.
