Bennacer signs with new agency to facilitate Milan exit
Ismael Bennacer has parted ways with his previous representatives and signed with a new agency, with the explicit goal of engineering a transfer away from AC Milan. The Algerian international has struggled for prominence at the San Siro and appears surplus to requirements. Milan are open to offloading the midfielder to free up space on their wage bill and in their squad. No destination club has been named yet, but the change of agent signals that Bennacer and Milan are both actively seeking a separation.
Read the full story at football-italia.netBennacer was once considered a key piece of Milan's midfield but has fallen out of favor, and a change of agency is a standard signal that a player is actively pushing for a move. For Milan's salary cap and squad planning, offloading him would be a net positive even at a reduced fee. For Bennacer, the priority will be finding a club willing to meet his wage demands and give him a prominent role. This is a low-stakes transfer story in the grand scheme of the window but it does confirm Bennacer's Milan career is effectively over.
