Real Betis continues to search the market for reinforcements for their midfield, but one of the names that had sparked the most interest in Heliópolis seems to be moving away. This concerns Ismaël Bennacer, midfielder for AC Milan, whose signing has become complicated in recent hours due to the strong interest from Saudi club Al-Hilal, willing to offer him a salary beyond what Betis can afford.

The sports management led by Manu Fajardo and Álvaro Ladrón de Guevara is very active in this market, and during their recent trip to Italy, both Fajardo and CEO Ramón Alarcón held meetings with various agents and clubs. In those discussions, Bennacer's name was mentioned, although he was never the top choice to strengthen the midfield.

Al Hilal's Millions Come into Play

As reported by EstadioDeportivo, although Milan is open to a sale, the high salary of the Algerian and the emergence of the Saudi club, which has put forward an economic offer much higher than that of the Seville team, have seriously cooled off the deal. In addition, Betis prefers more viable alternatives, such as Rolando Mandragora (Fiorentina) or Kristjan Asllani (Inter), although none are straightforward.

Bennacer, 27 years old, is set to be out of contract in 2027 and is coming off a discreet loan spell at Olympique de Marseille. Betis is not ruling anything out, but the Saudi arrival appears to have definitively distanced the Algerian international from the Benito Villamarín.
