Yanis Messaoudi

Young Algerian talent Yanis Messaoudi is on the verge of reaching a major milestone in his budding career at AC Milan.

Having joined AC Milan last summer from Racing Club de France, Yanis Messaoudi is about to sign his first professional contract with the Italian giants in the coming days, according to Foot Mercato. With six appearances and one goal in the Italian U17 championship, the Saint-Cloud native has quickly established himself as one of the most promising prospects of his generation within the Milanese youth setup.

Messaoudi has already caught the eye of the Algerian Football Federation, earning two call-ups to training camps with the U17 national team. As an Algeria U17 international, he continues to show steady progress season after season—a development that hasn't gone unnoticed in Milan or across Italy, where his professional deal is seen as a fitting reward for his strong performances and clearly recognized potential.
