Franck Kessie is a desired signing for Tottenham Hotspur. The 26-year-old midfielder's future at Barcelona is in doubt, and the upcoming transfer window may see him leave the club. After his contract with AC Milan expired, Kessie signed on with Barcelona as a free agent prior to the 2022–23 season. The Ivory Coast international has performed admirably, but his future is unknown, and he could already be out of a job.
Despite playing in only 43 games and contributing to six goals, the former Milan midfielder has played little over 1,800 minutes on the field. Barcelona is now experiencing a financial problem, and in order to balance their books and pursue new acquisitions, they need to unload a number of players. And the 26-year-old who joined them just a year ago is someone Xavi is prepared to let go of. His departure could enable them to raise a substantial quantity of money.
