Yacine Adli (born 29 July 2000) is a French professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for Serie A club Fiorentina, on loan from AC Milan.

Personal life

Adli's parents are from the village of Tizra-Aissa (Draâ El Mizan, Tizi Ouzou Province, Kabylia, Algeria).

Club career

Paris Saint-Germain

Adli made his professional debut for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) on 19 May 2018 in the final Ligue 1 match of the season against Caen. He replaced Christopher Nkunku after 83 minutes in a 0–0 away draw. On 2 July 2018, Adli signed his first professional contract with PSG.

Bordeaux

On 31 January 2019, the last day of the 2018–19 winter transfer window, Adli joined league rivals Bordeaux on a 4+1⁄2-year contract. The transfer reportedly involved a fee of €5.5 million and a 40% sell-on clause.

Adli scored against his former side Paris Saint-Germain in a 2–2 draw at the Parc des Princes on 28 November 2020.

AC Milan

On 31 August 2021, it was announced that Adli had signed for Serie A giants AC Milan on a five-year contract. The fee paid to Bordeaux was a reported €8 million. He was loaned back to the club for the remainder of the 2021–22 season.

In his first season at Milan, Adli had very little playtime and made just six sporadic appearances throughout the entire season, all of which were as a substitute in the closing minutes of games.

Despite these setbacks, however, he did not go to play elsewhere on loan, neither during the winter break, nor in the summer.

Ahead of the 2023–24 season, as Milan's primary formation changed from 4–2–3–1 to 4–3–3, Adli started to play in front of the team's defense as a holding midfielder or a deep-lying playmaker, providing an alternative to Rade Krunić, who had been considered a starter in this position at the time. However, as Krunić departed in the winter, Adli took his place in the starting XI.

Loan to Fiorentina

On 28 August 2024, Adli joined fellow Serie A club Fiorentina, on a season-long loan with an option to make the move permanent.

International career

Adli was born in France to Algerian parents of Kabyle origins. He holds French and Algerian nationalities. He is a youth international for France, and represented the France U17s at the 2017 UEFA European Under-17 Championship and the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
