Headline: Djibril Ouziad Draws Attention from Premier League Clubs Amid Le Havre’s Struggles
Le Havre AC continues to face a challenging season, but one bright spot has emerged in the form of 17-year-old Djibril Ouziad. According to information from Get French Football News, the talented France youth international is attracting interest from Premier League side Liverpool and Aston Villa.
Le Havre’s season has been marked by turmoil. Following a poor start that saw manager Didier Digard dismissed for securing just two points from nine matches, the situation deteriorated further. Discontent within the club’s ownership—Blue Crow—led to the resignation of president Jean-Michel Roussier and sporting director Demba Ba. The club’s struggles continued with a loss to FC Lorient under interim manager Jair Karam, leaving them at the bottom of the Ligue 1 standings.
While the club undergoes significant transition, it remains known for developing talent. Ouziad has emerged as one of the latest promising players, becoming a regular choice in the first team this season. He signed his first professional contract with Le Havre in September, a deal that extends until 2030. His impressive performances at right-wing-back are now catching the eyes of top-tier clubs.
Ouziad also made his debut for France’s U18 squad earlier this season and has logged nine appearances for Le Havre this campaign. Despite the team’s struggles in Ligue 1, it is likely that Ouziad will seek a new opportunity next summer.
