Franck Kessie, who moved to Barcelona after his contract with AC Milan expired, is currently facing challenges in finding regular playing time at the Catalan club. As a result, he has been linked with potential moves to Juventus and Tottenham in this transfer window.
Barcelona boasts a wealth of midfield options, which has made Kessie surplus to requirements, leading the club to make him available for transfer to another team.
Juventus is reportedly eager to secure the deal and bring Kessie to their squad. However, Tottenham also has a strong interest in acquiring the talented midfielder.
Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez has now had his say after being asked about the future of the Ivorian and said via Tuttomercatoweb:
“Franck didn’t play due to a slight annoyance. As for his future, I can tell he knows exactly what the situation is.”
Juve FC Says
Kessie has not been in great shape since moving to Barca, but that could be because the midfielder is struggling to adapt to a new league.
Moving to Juve will bring him back to a familiar competition where he played for Atalanta and AC Milan.
Barca also seems prepared to let him join us after not making their team better as they expected.
