Moroccan international player Elias Ben Nasr is nearing a transfer to Bayer Leverkusen, with the deal expected to exceed €30 million, including bonuses and incentives, according to French newspaper L’Équipe.
The German club has chosen Ben Nasr as the ideal replacement for his compatriot Amine Adli, who recently moved to Bournemouth in England. Sources indicate that negotiations between Monaco and Leverkusen have reached their final stages, with only minor details remaining before the official announcement of the deal.
Meanwhile, Elias Ben Nasr, who has made 11 appearances for the Moroccan national team and scored 3 goals, has reached a personal agreement with Leverkusen regarding the terms of the contract that will bind him to the German club for several years.
This transfer marks the fourth significant deal for Monaco in the final days of the summer transfer market, following close moves for Wilfried Singo to Galatasaray and Swingoto Magassa to West Ham.
These moves reflect not only an important new step in Ben Nasr’s professional career, but also Monaco’s strategy to capitalize on the market value of its players in the final phase of the summer transfer window.
