Bennacer hesitates to extend for this reason
Foot – The Algerian international Ismaël Bennacer in this case, defined his intention to delay before deciding on the extension of his contract with the club of AC Milan. We reveal to you the reasons for its current reluctance not to extend in the following paragraphs.
Under contract with AC Milan since 2019, Ismaël Bennacer continues, one season after another, impressive statistics. He is clearly regarded as one of the best midfielders both in Serie A and at European level. What arouse the desires of several big clubs of the Old Continent. In addition to those of PSG, the Rossoneri must especially face competition from two Premier League clubs.
Either the Red Devils and the Citizens. Both indeed seem the best placed to record the signing of the reigning African champion. But we must believe that the Lombard leaders do not despair of keeping their number 4. Even if Bennacer is linked to AC Milan until 2024, they preferred to anticipate the extension of his deposit more quickly. Especially since the new winter transfer window is about to open its doors.
Determined to replenish his 24-year-old regista, Paolo Maldini, sporting director of the Italian club, offered him an extension of two more seasons. An advance that the former resident of Empoli FC has not declined but to which he has not yet responded. This is indeed what relates the general daily Echorouk in its Saturday edition. We will take it back for you this Sunday, December 26, 2021.
Winter transfer market 2021: here are the reasons why Bennacer refuses to change his contract with AC Milan
The efforts made recently by the Milanese management clearly do not satisfy the Algerian maestro. The financial offer made to him by the latter concerning his annual salary hardly coincides with the figures formulated by his commercial agent. But it should be noted that the reflection of Zlatan Ibrahimović’s teammate does not focus entirely on the financial aspect.
In terms of playing time, the guarantees presented by AC Milan also seem insufficient for Ismaël Bennacer. If this one keeps in a room of his head the idea of modifying his contract with his current club, he prefers to wait until the end of the African Cup of Nations (CAN) before spreading. He plans to take advantage of his time in this competition to see his sporting future possibly cleared up.
According to the aforementioned media source, the young recuperating midfielder is determined to show the full extent of his talent in favor of CAN 2022 in order to have maximum visibility with the most prestigious camps in Europe. Suffice to say that AC Milan is under high pressure, especially if Ismaël Bennacer managed to achieve performances similar to those of the last edition held in Egypt.
