Real Madrid have reached an agreement to sign highly rated 16-year-old midfielder Abdellah Ouazzane from Ajax. The promising Moroccan talent will officially join the Spanish giants in July, completing his move as a free agent.
Ouazzane, known for his technical ability and maturity beyond his years, will initially join Real Madrid’s Castilla squad — the club’s academy team — as part of the next phase of his development. The move is seen as part of Madrid’s ongoing strategy to invest in elite young players who can grow within their system and eventually break into the first team.
The teenager’s decision to leave Ajax, a club renowned for nurturing young talent, highlights Real Madrid’s growing reputation as a top destination for Europe’s brightest prospects. Club insiders believe Ouazzane has the potential to follow in the footsteps of other academy graduates who have made the leap to senior football at the Bernabéu.
This signing once again underlines Real Madrid’s commitment to building a strong future foundation while maintaining their dominance in European football.
