Courted in Europe, notably by Liverpool and Juventus, Franck Kessié is set to join Saudi Arabia. The Barcelona midfielder has given his agreement for a transfer to the Saudi Pro League, according to information from Fabrizio Romano.
Unwanted at Barcelona and having seen little playing time last season, Franck Kessié could leave Catalonia this summer. The Ivorian midfielder is on the radar of Saudi Arabian clubs. In fact, as reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano, Al-Ahli dreams of acquiring the Elephants player.
The club from the Arabian Peninsula is actively engaged in negotiations to sign the 26-year-old player. An offer of 15 million euros has reportedly been presented to FC Barcelona’s management, and the player has given his agreement to join the Saudi Pro League, where a three-year contract is said to be on the table.
This information has been confirmed by Foot Mercato, which adds that the Ouaragahio-born player will undergo his medical examination with the Saudi Arabian club in Paris before signing his contract. If the deal is finalized, he will join the likes of Edouard Mendy, Roberto Firmino, Allan Saint-Maximin, and Riyad Mahrez in the league. Stay tuned for further developments…
