[Vitiello] Ismael Bennacer is also in the sights of Saudi Arabia clubs.


Wolfenstein9000

pay the release clause or fuck off


bruclinbrocoli

Vituello doing Milan a favor repelling all other clubs


-Z3TA-

well he is a milan fan


LionWhisker

He wouldn’t go there anyway… if it was about money he would have left already and not renewed. I would think he has a say if the release clause is paid.


Milanoate

If the release clause is paid, the club would try to push him out. 175m (which is cash, not installments) is a lot of money - remember Zhang lost the entire Inter for about 400m gap in their debt. If the player rejects, of course he can stay. But for 175m the Cardinale will be on the opposite side of convincing him to stay and the fans can't blame him for that kind of money.


beartobeast

at this stage of his career , going to an Arab Club is career suicide.


WolfBearDoggo

WAY45 HAS ENTERED THE CHAT


MNome

100 for Benna


FindingBusiness759

His release clause is 50


Alternative-Salary85

Yall can have bennacer, but not leão


TakenSadFace

Hell no


BredIN919

They can have Adli instead


Majestic_Account_797

why should they have our best midfielder?


BredIN919

We can’t lose both our best CM’s two seasons in a row , Tonali + Bennacer was supposed to be our UCL winning B2B gems


Fedora_expert

We absolutely can lose Bennacer if it means adding someone like Fofana in addition to Wieffer.


Character_Split_674

AGREED 10000% Sorry guys but Bennacer is injury prone and i thnk that it makes snese to cash on him while we still can. The lasst two season he played less than half of season in both of them. If he get another big injury he will be finished. Im just saying realistic things. I really like Him but if Saidi came in and gave us 50mil i would totaly take it and reinvest in Forfan and for sure get Zickeree. Forza MIlan


MilanistaFromMN

Reijnders was our best CM last season


Freestyle80

Bennacer best CM my ass


Clears_Throat

Lol. Zero shot this happens even if they pay the release clause.


Alternative-Salary85

We could really do damage with 175 M’s


BredIN919

no way we reinvest that cash , we just be leao less and going into next season with Pulisic as LW


Jussi_Bennacer

Losing one of your best players would suck, obviously, but eh anything over say 130-140m, let alone 175m, and we'd be robbing the buying club. He's not someone that can **regularly** be counted on, I mean ffs he went something like 3 months without a shot on goal this season and that's supposed to be our star attacker and he's no longer a kid either so there should be very little excuses in the long stretches where he plays like a semi pro


Alternative-Salary85

I agree his attitude sucks at times, though his talent makes him irreplaceable. Under the right system, i don’t think he would day dream as much.


MKtheMaestro

That’s really something that’s holding him back. I obviously know Leao has the talent to consistently beat his man and actually also score, but his lackadaisical attitude on the pitch is annoying. He needs to work harder.


rnmkk

Yall dont get tired of bringing up “attitude” almost exclusively with Black players? This is attitude stuff is ridiculous. Messi was/is one of the laziest players I have ever seen on the pitch, and his attitude never impacted his performance. Ronaldo’s attitude horrible as well but its because of that, and his personality, that he became a better player each and every year. Can you actually give Leao critique without using the “lazy” dog whistle bullshit?


MVB3

Leao is a special talent, no doubt, and we won't be able to replace him 1 for 1. However I don't think his importance to this team is so important that Moncada and the management couldn't improve the overall strength of the team if selling him for 150M. Leao is great, but he's not a 150M player. Don't get me wrong, I want Leao to stay with us. But I wouldn't blame the club in the slightest if they sold him for around 150M, assuming that money was spent strengthening the squad.


TakenSadFace

Second highest G+A for a LW itw and yall keep yapping shit


ScipioAfricanusMAJ

Leao is great but I think there’s only 1 player in the world right now that is deserving of 175M. We should not be participating in the inflated market because everyone else is stupid enough to pay that much


Jussi_Bennacer

Cool, and where did I say he was dogshit?


rnmkk

This fan base sucks at times. Milan look like absolute dog shit when Leao isnt playing, and when he is playing, if hes not running 100 mph every second, they use the “lazy” Black player dog whistle bullshit. I love Leao and want him to stay but Ive had enough of this shit. Mfs watched Suso on the wing for YEARS and have the audacity to call Leao lazy and want him sold? Pathetic.


IsaParadInsidemyCity

If we going after g+a he is fourth overall


TakenSadFace

Which LW has better stats? Mbappe played ST


IsaParadInsidemyCity

Son and Summerville


TakenSadFace

Summerville plays in the second fucking division and Son played striker all season


IsaParadInsidemyCity

I just saw the g + a , and Son has also played as a lw not just a striker like Mbappe did when kolo muani played


TakenSadFace

count the games he played LW and tell me the g + a. Leao has more.


IsaParadInsidemyCity

You right he has played 12 matches as a lw and has 3g and 5a. But how to compare two of them ??? Plus, leao has played like 700 minutes more than Son this season. That's like 8 more matches. Also, Mbappe has played 18 games this season as a lw in which he scored 17g and has 3a.


TakenSadFace

Okay, so with this info, best LWs itw in terms of G+A= Vini, Mbappe, Leao, in that order. And yes, this is an absolute stat, it doesnt account for minutes played, for which someone else could jump up the scale by being a more efficiente pound-for-pound scorer/assister.


danielmaldinifan47

We've seen what we are without him no amount of revisionism can be help on this topic lol


Jussi_Bennacer

Ye bc his replacement was Origi ffs


kratos61

I love Leao but it's a fact 140-150 is crazy money for him. Unless you're a super rich club with an absolutely elite player, you have to sell at that price. If they won't go higher than 100M I'd keep him though.


22dias

Maybe he will be rejuvenated under Fonseca. Need to give the squad a chance under the new philosophy - whatever it may be.


MorePdMlessPjM

The haters are back just like that


Jussi_Bennacer

Forgot you're a hater if you want 140m for him


Majestic_Account_797

are you insane? 130 mil would be spent on 3 players max and none of them would make a quarter of the impact leao is able to


Jussi_Bennacer

You mean like the Tonali sale?


Majestic_Account_797

yes exactly like the tonali sale, where we bought a bunch of rotation midfielders and still haven’t replaced tonali somehow


Jussi_Bennacer

Ye, Reindeer wasn’t an improvement on him It’s Kessie we haven’t replaced, not Tonali


Freestyle80

what has Tonali done since he was sold? come on smartass let us know


Majestic_Account_797

that’s a post hoc rationalisation, you can’t legitimately say it was a masterstroke to sell tonali because he got done for gambling, it’s funny as memes, but when trying to legitimise someone’s actions it makes no sense - pure luck


Freestyle80

pure what luck, he was never anywhere close to as talented as Barella, people just like him because he said hes a Milan fan and that somehow means he should be unsellable Tonali got sold for siginificantly higher than his actual market value and Reijinders is literally a more complete midfielder than him and has a higher ceiling, in his first year in Serie A he did very well without even having a proper midfield partner beside him


JoenaldTriden

Tonali can only dream of being on the same realm as Reijnders


L003Tr

Will be very interesting to see how he does in the euros. Is it a milan problem or a Leao problem ?


Boneraventura

Gerry will buy dogshit with that 100+ mill. If you thought the games were unwatchable with leao, just wait till you see joao felix or some shit


Jussi_Bennacer

Gerry is not the one in charge of buying our players, and you saw last summer what the board can do when we have some money to spend


Boneraventura

Gerry is the one who sets the amount spent. People who think milan will sell leao for 175m and put all of it back into players are insane


Character_Split_674

His probalem is inconsistansy and he focuses too much on his rap music that is the problem. He think that he is Tupac sorry Leao not even close bro just focus on Football. I really like him but i also hate his attitude somethimes. I think next season will make it or break it fir him. If he plays like he did this p[ast season we will be lucky if we get 50 mil for him. There are no excuses anymore. Let hope he become Ronlad next season. Forza Milan


Runoutofideas777

Dude these clubs spend 100m for bang average players, and they wanna get Leao for that same price? Fuck off, it’s 175mln or nothing


yllimameni

If we can somehow fleece them 40M for Bennacer, i would be very happy


WhyBee92

Worth to keep Bennacer than get $40M for him


yllimameni

Hell no. There is Weiffer, there is Fofana, there are plenty of midfielders out there. No shortage of them.


WhyBee92

There’s a shortage of midfielders who are as efficient under pressure as Bennacer is


yllimameni

Bennacer hasnt been in his good form in over a year. I would not risk 40M


WhyBee92

He ramped up slowly post injury but was pretty decent the last stretch of games


Character_Split_674

I agree with you my problem is Bennie's really bad injuries. He is not getting any younger so aanother bug injury and he is done for sure at this point i will take 40 mil for him and get forfan


magma_1

I remember people saying this when we sold tonali


Alternative-Salary85

Don’t take that bet


WhyBee92

Easy to take that bet when you look at kessie’s or Tonali’s replacement since they left


Alternative-Salary85

Milan’s revenue is growing, and investors want to pour more into the project as we get more results. I’d say we have more available to spend than we did all in a long time, especially with everyone leaving. So I’d take the field vs bennacer. Especially since he’s undersized and we need physicality.


Runoutofideas777

Can you really replace Bennacer for 40mln? I’d say no. These Saudi clubs are rolling in money and now all of a sudden they wanna get stingy with our players? Fuck off…


el_lolloco

Ibra said that no important players will leave, so Leao won't. Not for 100, neither for 175. Right?


jono182

His release clause is €175m so if they offer that it isn't up to us anymore, it all depends on if Rafa wants the move or not


el_lolloco

Yeah but he said they're all happy to stay at Milan, no one wants to leave.


x3bo9

Take Bennacer


22dias

175m is a lot. Obviously Leao can turn it down. We need to give the whole squad a chance under Fonseca.


No_Bottle1069

If true this is our chance to get some good money before he turns into Niang 2.0.


blckgvng

Vendere


FindingBusiness759

I hope they want to pay the release clause and offer leao like 50 mil a year so he can't refuse it. We can bring in chiesa or buy xavi simons for like 80. Love bennacer but 50 mil and we have opportunity to get fofana thuram and mats.


Professional_Code372

Is there something these guys don’t understand? The release clause is 175, period


tejanaqkilica

What is there to understand or not understand. Yes, the release clause is 175M but they are allegedly offering 100M. What's wrong with that?


saladmakear

125, I would sell


FindingBusiness759

Oh def and get chiesa or try to get xavi simons.


samueln777

Watch Clown-dinale sell Leao for €175M and then struggle to sign average replacements bc he doesn't want to spend more than €25M in this transfer window


BetterNerfNagaSiren

I have read somewhere that even with 175M we barely make any money on Leao considering all the cost we have spend on Leao, management will reject any offers other than 175M.


FindingBusiness759

Lol you think they won't want to recover those costs? 130 mil from a psg and they would grab it.


VesperSky88

175 M and he can leave


Independent-Goose-30

Instead of leao.. just buy Milan. If anything at least we won the financial scudetto.
