Sport have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are set to face plenty of competition for Franck Kessie’s signature, including from Premier League rivals, Aston Villa.
Fichajes.net reported a few days ago that Kessie is one of the players who is expected to be in the shop window in the summer and suggested that Antonio Conte is keen on bringing the midfielder to North London.

The report added that Spurs may even begin talks with Barcelona regarding the Ivorian in the ‘coming days’, with the Lilywhites allegedly willing to put €30m (£26.4m) on the table for the former AC Milan star.
Sport have now also reported on Tottenham’s interest in Kessie but they add that the Lilywhites are not the only club eyeing a summer move for the Barca star.
The report states that Unai Emery’s men are now ready to make an offer to take the 26-year-old to Villa Park in the summer.
The publication reveals that Inter Milan are also following Kessie’s situation and suggests that the Nerazzurri might have an advantage over Spurs and Villa since the player knows the Serie A well.
Spurs Web Opinion
I believe that Kessie will be an extremely attractive option for Spurs in the summer if Conte decides that he wants to strengthen in midfield.
The 26-year-old is not likely to be particularly expensive since Barca will likely have to offload some players before they can buy in the summer.
