Sky have published a report stating that significant interest is expected in Bennacer if Milan are unable to extend his contract by the summer transfer window, but optimism is filtering regarding the outcome of the negotiation.
The figures will be much lower than those involved in the Rafael Leao talks, but Milan are ‘convinced’ they will be able to satisfy the Algeria international with an agreement that may not exceed €3.5m net per season.
It would be an important step for the club given the importance of Bennacer in the project and in Stefano Pioli’s tactical plans, while the interest of top European clubs will no doubt provoke a sense of urgency from directors Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara to get things wrapped up as soon as possible.
