Franck Kessié is a very important piece for Stefano Pioli's formation and the management are aware of the player's importance on and off the field, which is why they want to protect the club's interest by extending his contract which is set to expire in June 30, 2022.
According to Sky Sport's journalist tonight, Gianluca Di Marzio, Kessié is a priority for the Rossoneri market men. While it is not a purchase operation, it is still very important for the squad. The club does not want to be in trouble in the next few months.
The journalsit also spoke about the full-back role. Here is what he said:
"Calabria has renewed until 2025 for 2 million euros plus bonuses. Milan then must take two full-backs. There will be some waiting for a few more days for Diogo Dalot in the hopes that Manchester United open up to the idea of a loan. The second choice will be Alvaro Odriozola of Real Madrid because Los Blancos are open for the loan."
"Aurier of Tottenham is also on the list, but he should be paid because he has only a one year contract with Spurs", declared the journalsit, "Then, as for the attacking midfielder, it will be an operation to be done calmly. Brahim Diaz' transfer is practically a done deal as well."
