Tuttosport: Kessie desperate for Italy return – Milan’s stance outlined

Former AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie is desperate to return to Italy from Barcelona but the Rossoneri may not help him, a report claims.

As has been reported by Tuttosport today (via Milan News), Kessie is keen to end his Barcelona adventure after just half a season and he favours a return to Italy.

He left Milan on a free transfer for Barcelona in the summer but he has not been able to get regular game time under Xavi Hernandez this season. The rumours from Spain are that he would like a return to Milan.

It seems that Milan view it as a closed chapter in their history and the player’s career and they are exploring other profiles for the midfielder after Kessie made it clear that he does not want to stay.

There is potential interest from cross-city rivals Inter in the Ivorian though but the high salary could be an issue for the Nerazzurri.
