Report: Kessie agrees €6m-a-year contract at Barcelona but agent wants hefty commission

Franck Kessie is expected to leave AC Milan at the end of the season as his contract will expire. There is no renewal on the horizon and he has accepted an offer from Barcelona, a report claims. 

The midfielder has been an important player for Milan since he arrived from Atalanta but despite months of negotiations, common ground wasn’t found. In fact, talks are no longer ongoing as the Rossoneri’s stance is so clear.

According to the journalist Rudy Galetti, Kessie has accepted a contract offer from Barcelona worth €6m plus bonuses. It isn’t far away from Milan’s offer, it should be noted, but the main difference is the commission of the agent.

Milan are obviously very strict with the wages and they certainly have little room for a commission. Kessie’s agent, George Atangana, is asking for a very high commission from Barcelona and talks are ongoing on that front, per the journalist.
