Alongside Sandro Tonali, Bennacer is part of one of the best midfield pairs in Italy, if not one of the best in Europe. There is mix of characteristics that mean the duo complement each other, and that is why the Algerian’s renewal must follow that of Tonali.
Bennacer is one of Milan’s key men and there are numbers to prove it: the Rossoneri midfielder is the second player in Serie A for stolen balls, he is the second among Milan players for total number of passes and he is first among the Rossoneri for chances created.
It shows how much Bennacer’s game grown exponentially even compared to last season as he is now an absolutely crucial player in both phases of the game, and while he is shining outside of Franck Kessie’s shaw it must be ensured that he does not meet the same fate.
