Ismael Bennacer’s future has taken a surprising turn, as Juventus are now weighing up a late move for the AC Milan midfielder — www.isagoal.com reports.
According to the report, Bologna have maintained contact for weeks, but their interest has not yet pushed negotiations forward in the way many expected.
Juventus coach Igor Tudor is said to be a strong admirer of the Algerian international, believing he could slot in perfectly alongside Manuel Locatelli.
The Turin side are still looking for a reliable deep-lying playmaker, especially since other market options have proven too expensive.
Milan are not shutting the door on an exit and would be open to selling Bennacer if the offer matches their financial demands.
The Serie A giants are prepared to sit at the table for serious proposals, but the decision now rests with Juventus on whether to act.
Bologna remain in the picture, though their pursuit has yet to move beyond exploratory talks.
With the window nearing its close, Bennacer’s name could dominate the final hours of Italy’s transfer market frenzy.
