Wolverhampton Wanderers should consider a move for the Juventus centre-back.
According to a report from Italian media outlet Calcio Mercato, Juventus ace Medhi Benatia is available for just €10 million (£8.7 million) this month, and Wolves should seriously consider signing the centre-back.
Nuno Espirito Santo will surely be looking to bolster his defensive ranks, with more competition required for Conor Coady, Willy Boly and Ryan Bennett, combined with the fact that Leander Dendoncker has failed to impress at Molineux.
Benatia, 31, is vastly experienced, and is still considered to be one of the best central defenders in the game, and he would surely prove to be a real asset for Wolves.
The Moroccan is a wonderful reader of the game, and is an expert man-marker.
He has a wealth of experience of winning major honours, and that kind of mentality would undoubtedly be a major plus for the Black Country outfit.
Benatia’s quality is further underlined by the 55 caps that he has earned for the Morocco national team, and he would arguably be an upgrade on all of Nuno’s current central defensive options.
In today’s day and age, £8.7 million for a player with the Juventus ace’s quality surely has to be considered as excellent value for money, and Nuno quite simply must explore the possibility of bringing the centre-back to Wolves this month.
