A Manchester derby could be on the cards for AC Milan midfielder Ismael Bennacer this summer, according to a report.
Fichajes.net – citing sources in England – writes how Manchester United showed interest in Miralem Pjanic of Barcelona and Wilfred Ndidi of Leicester, but both operations are complicated due to the high economic demands of their respective teams, which is why Bennacer is now a target.
The Algerian midfielder – who has a €50m release clause which becomes active this summer – has become a new target for the Red Devils who are ready to battle with Manchester City to try to sign him.
For his part, the 23-year-old would be interested in going to a team that is ready to win trophies now, taking into account that Milan’s project is still a long way from being able to compete with the elite clubs, so it seems Milan will have to do some work in order to keep him.
