Mehdi Benatia and AS Roma Move Towards Reconciliation
After a period of tension with AS Roma, where Mehdi Benatia was reportedly keen to leave the Serie A runners-up, recent developments suggest a thaw in relations. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Benatia appreciated coach Rudi Garcia’s supportive remarks during a recent press conference, which has encouraged him to reconsider his future at the club.
Despite previously refusing to extend his contract, Benatia is now open to resuming talks for a contract renewal. The main sticking point remains his salary, with the Moroccan international seeking a significant pay raise to reflect his value.
