In the summer, Bayer Leverkusen invested large sums to compensate for important departures. Among other things, the Rhinelanders transferred 32 million euros to AS Monaco to sign Eliesse Ben Seghir. After six months, it can be seen that the investment has not yet paid off immediately.
According to ‘Sky’, talks are underway between Bayer 04 and the Monegasques to bring Ben Seghir back to Ligue 1, at least temporarily. A loan deal until the end of the season is under discussion so that the 20-year-old Moroccan can regain his old strength at his old place of work.
Ben Seghir only made twelve competitive appearances for the Werkself. The attacking midfielder was not used in any games for over 90 minutes. The 20-time national player has not yet collected a scorer point. A clear indication that Ben Seghir has not yet arrived in Leverkusen.
However, the highly gifted young professional is currently suffering from an ankle injury. Whether Monaco snaps also depends on Ben Seghir’s health status. The youngster is no longer allowed to play for another club until the summer, so a loan to his former club is the only option.
