Deportivo Alavés is on the verge of finalizing one of its most significant transfers in the current summer transfer window by signing young Moroccan international Youssef Lakhdim, who is part of Real Madrid’s youth academy.
According to transfer news specialist Matteo Moretto, Alavés management is in the final stages of completing the deal, with an official announcement expected this week. Lakhdim is set to be one of the new faces that will bolster the team for the upcoming season.
The Moroccan player will sign a contract extending for four seasons with the Basque club, marking a pivotal step in his football career after impressing in various age categories at Real Madrid, showcasing his high technical skills and ability to play in multiple positions.
This move aligns with Deportivo Alavés’ efforts to strengthen its squad with promising young talents capable of evolving and making an impact. It seems that Lakhdim, who has garnered attention from the technical team of the Moroccan U-23 national team, perfectly fits this direction.
Alavés fans are hopeful that Lakhdim will provide a significant boost to the team’s lineup, especially after his impressive performances in the youth ranks at Real Madrid, where he demonstrated tactical maturity and promising individual skills.
