Ismael Bennacer is a target for clubs in Saudi Arabia and talks have already taken place over a potential move, it is claimed.
Milan will be without Bennacer for another few months months after he underwent surgery on his knee in France following a challenge in the first leg against Inter in the Champions League semi-finals.
The repair of the cartilage lesion was successfully performed by Dr. Bertrand Sonnery Cottet in the presence of club doctor, Dr. Stefano Mazzoni. Now, his focus is on returning to club action with an eye on the African Cup of Nations early in 2024.
According to Nabil Djellit of France Football and others, a Saudi club have identified and contacted Bennacer regarding a possible move to the Saudi Pro League.
However, because of the fact that the midfielder is currently injured, he would not be targeted for the current summer window but rather from next winter.
Exchanges have already taken place and it is a situation to watch, according to the journalist.
If he’s injured, and the sportwashing Saudis are offering a fortune, then might be a good idea….
I know Djellit, he’s a clown “journalist” and clearly not a reliable source
He is too injury prone for the role he plays. At least for someone who Milan depends ln. For a good price we should let Bennacer go
Bennacer has played less games than Pulisic in the past 3 seasons so I wouldn’t be against it, but it will have to be for +50 million, he’s arguably the most talented of the trio of Kessie-Bennacer-Tonali, his problem is he’s just too fragile to be our main CDM.
22/23 Puli 30 games, Beny 40 games.
21/22 Puli 38 games, Beny 40 games.
20/21 Puli 43 games, Beny 30 games.
Now for the minutes.
22/23 Puli 1012, Beny 2732.
21/22 Puli 2208, Beny 2102.
20/21 Puli 2453, Beny 1908.
hhhhmmmm 5.6k vs 6.7k.
Beny wins
If they want Beny they need to put up 70-80M
They don’t, he’s got a summer release clause of 50m
I forgot, that’s not valid this year after the renewal
As is the motto for current milan. Sell for the right price. All players are available as long as the moneys right now so hey why not. Plus he’s injured every year and there’s afcon to deal with so yeah for a good price he can go.
Correct. All players are available for the right price under this ownership. We have to sell in order to fund transfers over our yearly transfer budget (35-40M) so this will be a common occurrence. Perhaps not a bad thing for certain players like Benny and Krunic. Hopefully it’s not for players like Theo, Mike and Leao. I wouldn’t be surprised if Benny went to SA next summer if the price is right. Also would be surpised if we sold Krunic although Pioli trusts him.
