Tottenham Hotspur have been credited with an interest in Franck Kessié just days before the summer window closed this week.
Spurs continued to be named as a suitor for the midfielder, whose future at AC Milan remains uncertain as he has less than a year left on his contract. Liverpool have emerged as a new candidate for the 24-year-old, according to reports.
The Ivory Coast international had earlier expressed his desire to commit his long-term future to the Serie A side, but that hasn’t happened so far.
Gazzetta dello Sport on Saturday explain Milan chiefs Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara made an offer worth €6.5m per season, but the player said ‘no’ to their latest proposal.
He wants €8m net plus an additional €2m in bonuses, something that Paris Saint-Germain are willing to offer.
Gazzetta state the Italian club have ‘done their best’ and are ‘waiting for a response’ from the 24-year-old with ‘relative confidence’.
With PSG, Tottenham and Liverpool looming over his potential signing, a move away from the San Siro as a free agent next summer will leave him and his agent ‘richer’.
