In the midst of the summer transfer window, reports have emerged linking Chelsea Football Club with an interest in acquiring the services of Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie. The Ivorian international is believed to be considering his options within European football as he weighs up his next move.

While clubs from Saudi Arabia have also shown interest in securing Kessie’s signature, it appears that the midfielder is currently hesitant to depart from the pinnacle of European football competition, as reported by Spanish outlet La Vanguardia.

Kessie, who enjoyed an impressive spell at AC Milan for several seasons, has experienced a slight dip in form since his switch to Barcelona last year. Consequently, doubts have already arisen regarding his future at the illustrious Nou Camp.

Chelsea, among the clubs eyeing the potential transfer, could offer Kessie an opportunity to depart from Barcelona, according to sources at La Vanguardia. It will undoubtedly be intriguing to witness the level of interest the London-based club displays and the nature of the offer they present should they decide to pursue the talented midfielder.

However, the absence of Champions League football could present a significant hurdle for Chelsea in their pursuit of a high-profile player like Kessie. The prestigious European competition often serves as a strong incentive for players, and it remains to be seen whether the allure of competing at the highest level can be matched by alternative factors, such as financial considerations or the club’s sporting project.
