The case of Ismaël Bennacer is still under discussion on the side of OM. After trying to decrease the option to buy the Algerian international (12 million euros), the Marseillais continue discussions with AC Milan. Currently, OM refuses to pay both a substantial transfer and a significant salary. With 4 million euros per season, Bennacer could weigh very heavy on the club's finances, not completely convinced by the last 6 months of the midfielder. Pablo Longoria and Medhi Benatia are therefore trying to find a solution to reduce the note. And it is on the side of Bennacer's salary that the discussions bear mainly. If OM is willing to start on a loan, an effort must be made on the salary. Two options: Milanese care of a small part or drop in remuneration accepted by the player.
