After a fantastic debut season at AC Milan, the Algerian holding midfielder deserves to be talked about. One of Milan& #39;s finest players during their brilliant run after the restart, which earned him a spot in the Serie A team of the season.
Bennacer is left footed, which opens up more angles for United. He partners Frank Kessie in a pivot, which is perfect as he will be playing occupying this exact role next to Pogba.
The Algerian ranks extremely highly on every category with elite attacking and defensive numbers.

Not only is Bennacer elite in defensive actions but also attacking actions, in which he is the best in Europe bar none with this graph below to show for it.
One for the Arsenal fans, who will deeply regret selling Ismael. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😉" title="Zwinkerndes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Zwinkerndes Gesicht">

In conclusion, if Bennacer keeps working and continues on this form, he could be the world& #39;s best in midfield.
The Algerian Thiago. His elegance on the ball and press resistance reminds me of Thiago and no wonder Bayern are after him as Thiago& #39;s successor. OGS take notes.
