Franck Kessié's contract with AC Milan is due to expire. In the summer's transfer window, he could be leaving for free as a renewal with the Rossoneri seems very difficult and unlikely.
Last night, SportItalia has revealed that Franck Kessié has indeed a verbal agreement with FC Barcelona to sign for them in the summer as a free agent.
Now, according to Spanish outlet, Sport, Mino Raiola had intervened before in the negotiations between the former Atalanta midfielder and AC Milan for a potential contract extension.
The signing of Franck Kessie could be key for Barça's chances to sign Erling Haaland. Although Mino Raiola does not officially represent Kessie, the super-agent intervened with the player’s negotiations with AC Milan.
