Benzahra has featured in both of Monaco’s UEFA Europa Conference League qualifiers and also made a handful of Ligue 1 appearances.
Like Melvin Gomes, who is also expected to sign his first professional contract despite interest from Chelsea, Benzahra is set to be rewarded for his progress.
Nahek Haddani, 17, is also expected to sign his first professional deal, while Foot Mercato understands Franco-Tunisian attacking midfielder Najd Ajroud will put pen to paper on a three-year contract after impressing with Monaco’s U19s.
