Al Ittihad in Talks to Sign Ismael Bennacer from AC Milan

According to Matteo Moretto, Saudi Pro League champions Al Ittihad are currently in negotiations with AC Milan over a permanent transfer for Ismael Bennacer.

The club, home to stars like Karim Benzema, is looking to strengthen their midfield, which already features N’Golo Kante and Fabinho. The 27-year-old Algerian midfielder has emerged as a top target for The Tigers.

Al Ittihad are also considering alternative midfield options, including Wendel, the Brazilian midfielder from Zenit St. Petersburg.

“Al-Ittihad Club are negotiating with both clubs for a permanent transfer. The Saudi club is evaluating other profiles such as Wendel from Zenit, but Bennacer is one of the top names to strengthen the midfield,” wrote Moretto.
