Chelsea have had a £21 million bid rejected for the Atalanta midfielder Franck Kessie.
The Ivorian is a powerful box-to-box midfielder who can create as well as score goals. Kessie has scored 6 goals for Atalanta so far and is a target for several Premier League clubs according to Guardian.
The report also quotes the player’s agent, who has confirmed United and Chelsea’s interest in the player.
We have a lot of interest from the Premier League – Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal. I cannot say at this stage how much he will cost but we are talking about one of the best young players in the world.
