According to Spanish publication Sport, Tottenham have tabled a ‘strong offer’ for AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie.
Kessie, 25, has been a wanted man in recent months as his contract with the Rossoneri is set to expire at the end of the season (TransferMarkt).
Marca reported that Barcelona have emerged as the most likely destination for the Ivory Coast international, who has scored six goals in 23 appearances this term (Transfermarkt).
But Sport now claim that Tottenham have entered the frame for Kessie and have already placed a hefty offer on the table for the Milan midfielder.
A deal would include a significant wage packet and transfer bonus, given he is approaching the stage of free agency, which means ‘Spurs could end up winning the bid’.
The report goes on to explain the club’s managing director Fabio Paratici knows Kessie well from his time as Juventus chief and could now ‘prioritise’ bringing him over to North London.
Spurs Web Opinion
Tottenham have had considerable interest in Kessie for a decent amount of time now and he would definitely be a useful player to bring in. The only issue is how much he would demand salary-wise which could prove to be a stumbling block, but it seems evident that Spurs are firmly in this one.
