Liverpool taking the lead on the race to Kessié
Currently one of Serie A best midfielders, 24-year old Ivorian international pitcher Franck Kessié turned down AC Milan more than once, on Rossoneri deal renewal proposals. Playing for Italian club since 2017/18, former Atalanta man, whom AC Milan are fearing to lose on a free move, as happened with Gianluigi Donnarumma last summer, is allegedly tracked by many A-listers around Europe, with Liverpool leading the race.
Brought onto excellence grounds also by Rossoneri manager Stefano Pioli's work, Kessié, only on a deal with the club until June 2022, is currently earning a 2.4 million euros annual salary, and is going for a double-up, to the very least. Meanwhile, also Real Madrid, Juventus, Barcelona FC and Manchester United are on his tracks.
