Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca says the club will take a cautious approach as Ayyoub Bouaddi adapts to life in England. Maresca acknowledges that the midfielder is highly regarded but emphasizes that he needs time to settle in a new environment.
City have signed the 18-year-old Morocco international from Lille on a five-year contract. Both outlets note that Bouaddi has experience at the international level, including playing at this year’s World Cup, but they frame his transition to Premier League football as a period that may involve adjustment rather than immediate impact. While the reporting focuses on Maresca’s message of patience, neither outlet suggests specific performance targets or a defined timeline for when Bouaddi will feature regularly. Instead, the coverage centers on how City are managing expectations as he becomes part of the squad.
