Transfer: Kessie close to leaving Barcelona for new club

Barcelona midfielder, Franck Kessie, is closing in on a move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli.

As reported by the Sun UK, Kessie is set to leave Al-Ahli and Barcelona want to sell the 26-year-old amid financial troubles.

The report added that a fee of £13million is expected to be agreed upon.

Kessie joined Barcelona from Serie A giants AC Milan just a year ago.

Meanwhile, Al-Ahli have already signed top players like Edouard Mendy, Riyad Mahrez, Allan Saint-Maximin and Roberto Firmino into their squad.
