West Ham transfer news: AC Milan could use Arsenal target as trump card to sign Maldini favourite

Serie B News have reported that Arsenal target Ismael Bennacer could convince Said Benrahma to leave West Ham United in a bid to join AC Milan this summer.

Considering the pair play together for the Algerian national team, one can understand why the Serie A champions’ ploy revolves around the central midfielder persuading Benrahma to push for an exit.

While it may not be easy for AC Milan controller Ismael Bennacer to do so as Said Benrahma is contracted to West Ham till 2026, it seems as if that remains the plan of action.

Details behind Benrahma to AC Milan rumour, Bennacer angle explored

Further details suggest that the 27-year-old is not considered as a successor to Rafael Leao, who could leave the club in the summer.

Instead, the AC Milan chiefs, including Paolo Maldini is a big fan of Said Benrahma, which is why Ismael Bennacer may be used as a secret weapon in their artillery to convince him to depart West Ham.

In addition, it has been stated that in case David Moyes’ men get relegated, the winger’s value is £21.9 to £26.3 million. However, the European giants plan to offer the Irons £7 million plus Alexis Saelemaekers to sign him if they stay up.

Said Benrahma should say yes to the move

If Ismael Bennacer does manage to make a strong case for why Said Benrahma should sign for AC Milan, he should embrace the opportunity and leave a sinking West Ham ship.

Sure, Benrahma is not necessarily a victim in this scenario himself as Moyes was right in saying that he has been inconsistent this season.

But ultimately, not many players get the opportunity of going from battling relegation to potentially playing in the Champions League, which is one he should well and truly embrace.
