The Uruguay midfielder's early season form has impressed manager Thomas Frank and club chiefs.
Bentancur's current deal expires at the end of this campaign.
"I think first and foremost, I am very happy with Rodri. He has been a very good player for us, a top professional in every aspect," Frank said recently.
"I am happy with him, he is happy with being here. I know that for a fact. Let us see what is going to happen in the future."
