Algerian star Ismail Bennacer, the Milan midfielder, has turned down an offer from the Rossoneri to extend his contract, which expires in June 2024.
According to Italian site Calciomercato, Ben Nasser is dragging his feet with the Milan administration over an extension after he turned down an offer from the Rossoneri to sign a new contract worth 3 million euros a year.

The Italian site lists Ben Nasser’s current salary as €1.7 million and the 24-year-old Algerian needs more than double that amount to agree to an extension.
He explained that there is a common desire on both sides to continue talks as Milan’s technical director Paolo Maldini will have a new session with Wakil bin Nasser after the end of the summer Mercato.
AC Milan intend to remove the fine clause of 50 million euros from the Algerian’s international contract in order to ensure their presence at the San Siro.
