Will he go? Will he stay? Ramy Bensebaini decides his future | OneFootball

Ramy Bensebaini has been one of Dortmund’s strongest performers for weeks. The 31-year-old BVB defender has stood out with consistently strong displays. That has not gone unnoticed by other clubs either.

Transfer rumors surrounding Bensebaini have not died down ahead of the start of the summer transfer window. An early departure from Dortmund did not seem unlikely to many observers. After all, the Algerian’s contract only runs until 2027.

As Maghreb-Foot reports, the BVB professional has now made a decision about his future. According to the report, Bensebaini has now put an end to speculation about a move. Despite high-profile offers, including from Galatasaray Istanbul, the 81-cap international is apparently firmly determined to see out his time with the Black and Yellows until his contract expires in June 2027. The strategic advantage: a free transfer the following year would guarantee him maximum freedom in negotiations.

Interest from Turkey and France

Last winter, Galatasaray signaled strong interest in signing Bensebaini. A move was on the verge of completion but fell through due to time constraints. Olympique Marseille is also said to have explored a transfer for the Dortmund player. From 2015 to 2020, he made 101 Ligue 1 appearances for Montpellier and Rennes.

The Algerian international will focus entirely on the upcoming World Cup next summer. In the group stage, the 31-year-old defender and his team will face Argentina, Austria and Jordan. According to Transfermarkt.de, Bensebaini’s current market value stands at seven million euros. His annual salary is reportedly 4.5 million euros.

In the current season, the defender has made a total of 32 appearances for the Black and Yellows. He has been extremely clinical in front of goal, scoring seven times. Bensebaini has also provided three assists. He is currently recovering from an ankle injury.
