It is therefore in this context that Chelsea have activated a plan B. According to information from the Telegraph, the London club would indeed consider recruiting Franck Kessié. Little used by Xavi since the start of the season, the 26-year-old midfielder is chomping at the bit on the FC Barcelona bench. A situation that could lead the Ivorian international to set sail during this market.
Indeed, Franck Kessié, who until recently wanted to fight to reverse the trend at Barça, would be more and more inclined to leave the Catalan club.
For its part, FC Barcelona would be willing to let him go, provided however that a club puts 35 million euros on the table. An amount that should not cool the Blues in view of the offer made to Brighton for Moisés Caicedo.
A departure which could allow Barça to achieve a very good added value, since Kessié arrived freely this summer from AC Milan.
