In Spain, they continue to insist that FC Barcelona is keen on securing the signature of AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessié who is 25 years old. The former Atalanta star's contract is due to expire at the end of the current season and will not renew his deal with the club.

As reported by Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, a farewell of the Rossonero number 79 is getting closer and closer, actually.
Many clubs have been linked with a move for the Ivorian midfielder. However, and lately, FC Barcelona have been the ones who are the most linked to him.
According to the same source, the Balugrana are keen on Franck Kessié. But, they are not willing to raise auctions or spend crazy amounts of money relating to agents commissions.
The AC Milan defensive midfielder was a key part of Stefano Pioli's system last season thanks to his great performances. This season, however, is a different story. Despite being able to contribute to the attack with 6 goals and one assist, he has not been consistent especially in the defensive phase which made the gaffer drop him to the bench twice in a row in the last two Milan fixtures.
