According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian team is interested in Ben Bentil, a power forward from Ghana who made his EuroLeague debut with Panathinaikos in 2019, where he stayed for two seasons.

As other outlets confirm, despite that the fact that the player is under a two-year, 1.1-million-dollar contract with Bahcesehir Koleji, his deal includes a EuroLeague-out clause that Armani Milan are willing to pay.

26-year-old Bentil is producing 12 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game in BSL and 14.8 points and 5.8 rebounds in the FIBA Europe Cup with his current team. Bahcesehir are considered the big favorite to win the European title. Bentil was the No.51 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft. He has also played with Peristeri, Bilbao, and Chalons-Reims, after short stints in the NBA G-League, the Chinese League and the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks.
