Journalist says Milan could sell Kessie for ‘€25-30m’ to finance centre-back signing

By Isak Möller -

AC Milan are looking for a centre-back on the transfer market as a result of Simon Kjaer’s injury, which will keep him out for the rest of the season. In addition to that, the Franck Kessie renewal is yet to be sorted. 

In short, it could be an eventful January window for the Rossoneri as they want to compete for the Scudetto this season. The injuries have troubled them enough this season and now reinforcements are needed.

According to journalist Enzo Bucchioni, in his latest editorial for TuttoMercatoWeb, Milan could sell Kessie in January as the renewal remains complicated. However, it would require an offer in the region of €25-30m.

They could then use that money to finance a centre-back signing, with Sven Botman of Lille on their radar. It’s also possible that they could turn to Chelsea again, having signed Fikayo Tomori from them in January this year.

    1. Baka is not reliable. Strong but sloppy. Not so confident with balls going forward. So much misplaced passes and costly mistakes.. I would like a more agile DM with attacking minded characteristics

    2. Baka can’t keep possession, can’t pass…to his team mates, can’t track back. He needs to go back to the academy and learn the basic.

    1. Guarantee they’d get him this way. As a FA, he could do anywhere to the highest bidder. This way, they ensure they got him and may be able to get him at a lower wage than as a FA.

  1. I don’t know the credibility of this news but if true, it’d be crazy to turn down such offer. That’s crazy money for a guy whose contract expires in six months.

  2. Ya right – who the hell is gonna spend 30M for Kessie when they can get him for free in Summer??? I wish that would be true but hard to see it happening. Perhaps we can get a small free 5m maybe 10M if we are lucky – but 30M? Wishful thinking at best.

  3. He is wanted by many Clubs so YES , its possible an offer like say €20 will come from the Club that want to act the fastest. Wish it happens

  4. Baka is not reliable. Strong but sloppy. Not so confident with balls going forward. So much misplaced passes and costly mistakes.. I would like a more agile DM with attacking minded characteristics

  5. 1. Not happening. 2 we are going to need a mid if kessie leaves this year rather than a CB. Also I have faith in Gabbia and Kalulu as backups.

  6. Kessie has left Milan already. His mind is elsewhere is not good for the team anymore. Sell him if someone will buy.

    Even Krunic is better in that role nowadays.

    1. Why are you saying this bro…..is there any DM that is better than him I mean that will replace him in the team for now
