Franck Kessie’s agent denies his client leaving Barcelona

DBasia.news – FRepresentative of Franck Kessie opened up regarding circulating news. Kessie reportedly wants to leave Barcelona after not getting enough playing time.

Franck Kessie is one of Barcelona’s new fleet this season. The player from the Ivory Coast was imported from AC Milan on a free transfer.

Kessie’s presence is expected to strengthen the defense sector. Moreover, in addition to being strong in helping defense, Kessie also has mobility in assisting attacks.

However, so far Kessie has not obtained the playing time he had hoped for. Xavi Hernandez has only played him in 12 matches in various competitions. Most of them coming on as substitutes.

The situation led to speculation that Kessie did not feel at home at Camp Nou. The midfielder intends to leave in the middle of this season.

However, Kessie’s agent, George Atangana, gave a different statement. He confirmed that what had been circulating recently was unfounded.

“It’s all fake news, completely false. He’s happy at Barcelona and doesn’t want to leave,” explained George Atangana to Mundo Deportivo.

“Franck Kessie has only been at this club for a few months. He is still in the process of adapting to the team and Barcelona’s style of play.”

Franck Kessie again did not play in Barcelona’s last match against Valencia. Xavi did not choose Kessie in the five substitutions he used in that duel.
