Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie is reportedly mulling over joining Serie A giants Inter Milan after contacting Hakan Calhanoglu.
According to a report by Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Franck Kessie is considering joining Inter Milan in the summer transfer window. The Ivorian has contacted Hakan Calhanoglu to discuss a possible move to San Siro. Meanwhile, the Serie A giants have contacted the Barcelona midfielder’s representatives.
Franck Kessie might have had a lot of hopes and aspirations when he joined Barcelona last summer. The 26-year-old burnt a few bridges with AC Milan by departing from San Siro as a free agent. But the move to Barcelona has not worked out as envisioned for the player, as he has been a bit-part player under Xavi Hernandez.
The Ivory Coast international has not even completed 1,000 minutes of game time thus far this term. And he has started only eight of the 32 available games for Barcelona in the ongoing season. Kessie’s frustrations are boiling over, and his situation has captured the attention of Inter Milan.
Inter Milan showed interest in Kessie leading up to the January transfer window. But the player did not want to leave Barcelona, who remained uninterested in selling him last month. However, with his situation not changing much, the former AC Milan talisman is considering his long-term future.
A move back to Serie A is on the agenda for the 26-year-old, especially if his fortunes do not improve. And the Ivorian has contacted former AC Milan teammate Hakan Calhanoglu. The duo has discussed a possible summer move to Inter Milan. Meanwhile, the Italian giants are in touch with Kessie’s representatives over a potential deal.
Barcelona can make a handsome profit from Kessie’s sale amid the never-ending financial woes. And with Kessie considering returning to Serie A, a summer move might be on the cards. Meanwhile, the Catalan giants are interested in Inter Milan midfielder Marcelo Brozovic.
So it will not be surprising to see Brozovic and Kessie swap bases in the summer transfer window. For now, Inter Milan will be focused on bringing the Ivory Coast international back to Serie A in the summer. And it will be interesting to see if the move materialises.
