Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are all interested in signing Lille midfielder Sofiane Boufal, according to French magazine France Football.

The 22-year-old has been in fine form since joining the Ligue 1 outfit from Angers in the summer, scoring four goals in 12 league appearances.




Spurs have followed Boufal for several months, having sent scouts to watch the youngster in action in August.

Lille’s Ligue 1 rivals PSG are also interested in the Moroccan, while Liverpool, who have a fantastic business relationship with Les Dogues, following Divock Origi’s transfer, are the latest to let their admiration for Boufal be known.
 


Former Lille boss Herve Renard, who was sacked earlier in the month, admitted before leaving the club that Boufal could even leave Stade Pierre-Mauroy in January.

"Interest from English clubs is there, and we could lose the boy this winter", he was quoted as saying.

Boufal, whose present deal with Lille runs until 2019, is a product of French club Angers’ youth system.

He managed to score four goals in 51 games for his former employers.
