Franck Kessie's agent speaks out on Milan contract impasse

Franck Kessie's agent has cast major doubt over the midfielder's future at Milan, stating that the club's official contract offer was 'very far' from the rumoured €6.5m net per season, and that 'an important player needs a worthy contract'.

The 24-year-old's deal is set to expire in the summer of 2022, meaning he will be free to negotiate a move away from San Siro from January unless the Rossoneri manage to tie him down to a new long-term deal.

Milan have been in negotiations with Kessie for months, but they have seemingly made little progress over an agreement, opening the door for a number of interested clubs, including a host of the Premier League's elite.

The Ivorian's agent George Atangana told Calciomercato that Milan have made an official contract offer to Kessie, but it is 'very far' from the reported figures of €6.5m net per season.

"For an important player, he always needs a worthy contract," he said. "There was an official offer from the club, but we are talking about figures very far from what you are referring to.
