Algerian midfielder Nabil Bentaleb has endured a challenging season at Schalke 04, where he remains under contract until 2021. The 24-year-old has struggled for playing time and recently underwent groin surgery, ruling him out of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations with the Fennecs.
Despite earning an annual salary of around €5 million, Bentaleb appears to have fallen out of favor with Schalke’s management, who reportedly want to part ways with him. According to BILD, the former Tottenham player is in contact with several clubs, with interest coming from both French and English teams.
Bentaleb’s technical ability and experience in top European leagues make him an attractive option for clubs seeking a versatile midfielder. Once fully recovered, he is expected to focus on regaining match fitness while exploring potential opportunities to continue his career abroad.
The Algerian international’s next move could provide a fresh start and the chance to re-establish himself at the club and international level, positioning him for a return to form in both domestic competitions and future national team duties.
