via ECHO, Liverpool is aiming to outmanoeuvre Inter Milan in the race for Franck Kessie‘s signature by presenting a substantial offer. The offer be in the range of €35m to €40m, as the Reds aim to bolster their midfield options.Kessie’s debut season at Barcelona saw him make 28 appearances in the league, albeit with only seven starts. Despite limited opportunities, the Ivorian showcased glimpses of his talent and potential, leaving an impression on Liverpool scouts and prompting their renewed interest.
Liverpool’s pursuit of Kessie underlines their ambition to strengthen the midfield department and inject fresh energy into the squad. The Ivorian midfielder possesses a blend of physicality, technical ability, and versatility that could give Fabinho a run for his place in the starting XI.
The competition from Inter Milan adds an extra layer of intrigue to the transfer saga. Liverpool will need to certainly act swiftly and assertively to secure the 26-year-old’s services amidst the interest from the Serie A giants.
If the potential deal materializes, Kessie would join Liverpool’s midfield ranks alongside established stars like Mohamed Salah and Alisson Becker and emerging talents in midfield like Harvey Elliott, Fabio Carvalho and even Stefan Bajcetic which would further enhance the team’s depth and quality in the middle of the park.
His arrival would provide healthy competition and potentially unlock new tactical possibilities for Klopp’s side in their pursuit of silverware.
