Bouaddi made his Ligue 1 debut as a teenager and has continued to enhance his reputation with impressive performances.
His profile soared further after representing Morocco at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where his displays attracted interest from several European heavyweights.
Manchester City are believed to have reached an agreement with Lille for the Moroccan international, with the deal now progressing towards completion.
