It had been assumed that Maghnes Akliouche (23) would leave AS Monaco this summer. The France youth international will be allowed to leave the Principality club, but not at any price. Many clubs have been deterred by Monaco’s €70m price tag.
Instead, it could be another one of Monaco’s academy products that leaves the club this summer. Eliesse Ben Seghir (20) may not be on the market, as per Nice-Matin. Speaking at the start of June, the club’s CEO, Thiago Scuro, expressed a desire to retain the Morocco international.
“He is a special talent, a special player. We have the intention to keep developing him here. I think his prime is to come. It is our intention that he stays,” said the Brazilian in a press conference attended by Get French Football News.
However, that stance may now have shifted. Ben Seghir himself is keen on a move, and Monaco are now open to the possibility. However, Les Monégasques’ demands are considerable. Nice-Matin understands that they value their forward at €50m.
