Juventus eye Kessie return amid salary hurdle
Ivory Coast midfielder Frank Kessie, now at Al-Ahli Saudi, is rumored to be returning to the Italian league with serious interest from Juventus. The club sees him as a key target to strengthen their midfield, but his high salary could complicate the deal.
Kessie had a successful stint at AC Milan, helping them win the Scudetto before moving to Barcelona in 2022. He won La Liga in his only season there before transferring to Al-Ahli for 12.5 million euros. Kessie has been a key player for Al-Ahli, which has attracted European interest again. His contract with Al-Ahli runs until June 2026, and Juventus is hopeful of reaching a financial agreement for his return to Serie A.
