Franck Kessié is likely to leave AC Milan, when his contract with them expires at the end of this season. His situation at the San Siro has alerted several clubs across Europe, with Tottenham Hotspur being one among them.
Barcelona are pushed forward as one of the contenders to sign the midfielder in recent days. On Wednesday, Mundo Deportivo reported the La Liga side and Paris Saint-Germain are joined by the north London club and a few others side in monitoring the 25-year-old.
Milan are currently leading the league table with 55 points from 25 matches, a point ahead of second place Inter Milan, who have a game in hand. Napoli are third and trail the leaders by two points.
The Rossoneri have a point more than they had at this stage of last season. MilanNews.it explain they were distracted by Gianluigi Donnarumma and Hakan Calhanoglu renewals in the previous term, which played a part in allowing Inter to win the title.
Stefano Pioli has urged his men and everyone associated with the club to unite and not get distracted with off-field issues this time around. Kessié, for his part, is ‘working hard’ and will ‘give everything’ to the club until the end of the campaign.
This, however, has not stopped him from attracting interest from elsewhere as there are ‘several teams’ after the Ivory Coast international. It’s claimed the Premier League seems to be ‘most concrete hypothesis’ for Kessié and ‘particularly Tottenham’.
MilanNews.it suggest the option to join Spurs seems to be ‘most concrete’ for Kessié as a move to England looks to be on the cards in the summer.
The midfielder would fit Antonio Conte’s desire for experienced, rather than developing, players.
