As reported on TBR previously, Milan were willing to sell Kessie in Januaဣry for around 𓆏£21.5m. It remains to be seen whether Spurs will pay for the midfielder in January, or simply tie him to a pre-contract for the summer.

If Fabio Paratici does land Kessi👍e, he will have beaten a host of clubs to his signature. That includes London rivals Arsenal, as well as Manchester United.

TBR’s View: Tottenham Fans Should Be Excited For Kessie

This is superb by Spurs if they pull it off. One of the most in de🤪mand midfielders in Europe, potentially for nothing, and he’s heading to North London.

Antonio Conte wan⛦ts new players and he wants quality. In Franck Kessie, he is getting an all action midfielder who ticks more or less every box in the book. In fact, Kessie is easily one of the best midfielders in Serie A at the moment.

Of course, Spurs fans will want official news. But t💖his is as close to landing Kessie as they’ve been since the summer, and supporters can be forgiven for getting a tad excited here.
