Becomes Target of Liverpool and Tottenham, Kessie Confirms His Loyalty to AC Milan

DBasia.news – Franck Kessie’s loyalty to AC Milan seems unquestionable. The Ivorian national player did not hesitate to pledge allegiance to the Rossoneri.

Loyalty has indeed become a rare item shown by Milan players lately. A number of stars chose to leave for free despite being offered a contract extension.

Gianluigi Donnarumma and Hakan Calhanoglu are the latest two players to do just that. Though they became an important element behind the revival of Milan in the last two seasons.

Donnarumma refused to extend his contract at Milan because he did not agree with the salary offered by management. The best player for the 2020 European Cup is now officially in Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) uniform.

What Calhanoglu did was even worse. The Turkish national chose to cross to Inter Milan after his contract expired this summer.

Kessie has the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of the two former teammates. His old contract expires next year.

This makes the 24-year-old player a target for many big clubs. Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are two of them.

But Kessie had made her stance clear. He wants to play at Milan until he retires.

“I am proud to have chosen Milan and it was not my intention to leave. I want to stay forever,” Kessie told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“When I come back from the Olympics I will fix everything because I only want Milan. The sporting director, Paolo Maldini knows my thoughts.”

Kessie has indeed become one of the pillars of Milan in the midfield. High cruising range is its main quality.

Contribution of 13 goals and six assists in Serie A last season is proof. It’s natural that Milan is afraid of being left by one of its stars again.
