Transfer market: Eliesse Ben Seghir targeted by several major European clubs

Revelation of AS Monaco this season, Eliesse Ben Seghir has been navigating a challenging period for several weeks in the Principality. His fragile relationship with coach Adi Hütter, combined with significantly reduced playing time, has created a tense atmosphere that opens the door to a possible departure as early as this summer.

Starting last Saturday against Le Havre before being substituted at halftime, the Moroccan international has scored six goals in thirty Ligue 1 appearances this season, but his influence has waned since February. According to the French press, this situation stems from the derby against OGC Nice, where Ben Seghir publicly expressed his frustration.

Despite the 20-year-old player's strong desire to return to Monaco's starting eleven, the Austrian coach no longer considers him a central part of his plans. However, the Moroccan's market value remains high. Indeed, his suitors are multiplying and are not to be underestimated. Several top European clubs have intensified their monitoring of Eliesse Ben Seghir.

Manchester City, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Bayer Leverkusen are among the teams ready to seize the opportunity. According to gathered information, these clubs could make a move as soon as the summer transfer window opens, especially since the player's value is estimated at around 30 million euros. The Monaco club, which has always rejected any approaches so far, might reconsider its stance.
