Tottenham have reportedly asked Barcelona to ‘give them a price’ for midfielder Franck Kessie.
The 26-year-old signed for the club in July 2022 and while he has made 39 appearances for the Catalan side, he has struggled to cement himself as a regular face in Xavi’s first XI, having started just five LaLiga games this season.
Tottenham have been long-standing admirers of Kessie, notably submitting a £13m bid to sign the Ivory Coast midfielder back in December.
While Kessie had struggled to find his feet at Barcelona, he rejected that approach from Spurs, as well as an offer to return to his former club AC Milan, and also rejected a wage cut, as the club looked to free-up some cash to re-sign Lionel Messi.
But according to SPORT, Daniel Levy’s side have once again inquired about the player and it seems this time he could leave the club, with the outlet reporting that he ‘is one of the players chosen to leave Barca as of June 30.’
