Mehdi Benatia, the Moroccan international defender, has attracted interest from clubs like Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain. However, there are indications that he might extend his contract with AS Roma.
Currently contracted with Roma until June 30, 2018, Benatia could potentially negotiate a salary increase as part of his contract extension discussions. Talks are expected to take place between the club’s sporting director, Walter Sabatini, and the player’s representatives before the end of the season.
Benatia has been a key player for Roma this season, starting in 24 Serie A matches and contributing five goals under the management of Rudi Garcia. His performances have played a significant role in Roma’s current second-place position in the league standings after 25 matchdays.
