He rejected the chance to join the Premier League side because of his doubts concerning the level of Wolverhampton. At that time AC Milan were pushing to sell Kessie and were forced to lower their asking price in order to complete a move in a short time.
While today L’Equipe reports that AC Milan and Monaco have agreed the transfer of Franck Kessie to France for a fee of €35 million. According to the French news outlets, the two clubs have reached a total agreement and the only thing missing is Kessie’s approval.
