Monaco’s rising talent, Eliesse Ben Seghir, has emerged as a top transfer target for Serie A champions Napoli.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Napoli’s new sporting director Giovanni Manna is an avid admirer of the 19-year-old and views him as an ideal fit for incoming manager Antonio Conte’s attacking plans.
Monaco, however, is reportedly demanding a fee in the region of €40–50 million for the Moroccan midfielder. Interest in Ben Seghir is intensifying, with Manchester City, Liverpool, and Bayer Leverkusen also monitoring his situation closely.
Despite losing his starting spot partway through the season, Ben Seghir managed to register nine goals and four assists in 46 appearances—a testament to his creative influence and versatility in the final third.
Known for his flair, quick feet, and intelligence in tight spaces, Ben Seghir is drawing attention from top clubs seeking dynamic attacking talent.
Napoli, armed with a €200 million transfer budget, are being strategic with their spending and see the young playmaker as a key long-term investment.
Currently, Ben Seghir is with the Moroccan national team preparing for tonight’s friendly match against Benin. He was also recently named on the prestigious Golden Boy shortlist, alongside fellow Moroccan prospects Chemsdine Talbi and Ayyoub Bouaddi.
