Barcelona new signing has offered himself to Serie A clubs as he wants to leave in January transfer window.
Kessie was the first new player that Barcelona brought in during the summer transfer window. The Ivorian agreed to join Barcelona via a Bosman deal after Xavi requested that discussions to sign him begin in January.
His time in Barcelona hasn’t exactly been good, though. He is behind Pedri, Sergio Busquets, Gavi, and Frenkie de Jong in the midfield hierarchy. For additional background, he has participated in seven La Liga games this season, starting just two.
Kessie has also left a lot to be desired when he has played, frequently finding it nearly impossible to fit in. The midfielder wants to leave Barcelona in January, according to Calcio Mercato reports.
According to the news, he has made his services available to a few Italian clubs, including AC Milan, his old club.
According to reports from the past two weeks, the 25-year-old was not happy with his circumstances but was certain that he would soon be essential to Xavi and the team.
It is unclear if Barcelona will actually sign another midfielder if Kessie leaves the team because Pablo Torre is in the position behind him.
As it stands, the Catalans are dependent on his services, mostly quantitatively. Not to forget, he is among the few players from the team who will not travel to Qatar for the World Cup, and will be fresher than before.
