There continues to be some speculation about Ismael Bennacer and a potential future away from AC Milan, and the details of his release clause have been confirmed.
MilanNews writes that since Monday Bennacer has started training at Milanello with his team-mates for the start of the new season. The Algerian midfielder had a difficult 2023-24, missing the first half due to a knee injury after an operation in May.
Bennacer would like to finally relaunch himself after having had a series of complicated months in which he was unable to express himself at his best. However, in recent days, some clubs in the Saudi Pro League have begun to make enquiries to explore the possibility of an offer.
More than one Arabian club have approached Bennacer to understand the feasibility of the pursuit, thinking of exploiting the clause in the player’s contract given that they have very deep pockets.
How much is it worth and how long does it last? Bennacer has a clause of €50m and – according to the report – it is valid for the entire summer. It is not limited to the month of July as some sources reported.
The 26-year-old’s contract with Milan runs until 30 June 2027, and it is likely that the new head coach Paulo Fonseca will have a say in his future.
