Al Ahli Jeddah Races to Lock Down Kessi as European Clubs Circle

Contract talks heat up as Kessi's future at Al Ahli hangs in the balance

Al Ahli's management is racing to renew Ivory Coast midfielder Frank Kessi amid growing talk he could depart in the forthcoming summer window, as the club aims to keep a key pillar.

Italy’s clubs are reportedly circling, led by Roma, Inter Milan, Juventus and Fiorentina.

His contract runs out this summer, so he would reach free agency in January, pushing Al Ahli to act.

According to Saudi outlet Al-Yaoum, renewal talks hinge on money and length of stay.

The club is ready to improve its offer, reflecting Kessi's value and role and his form since arriving.

Kessi weighs options as European clubs monitor the situation, keeping negotiations cautious while both sides seek a win-win.

In short, he has European choices on the table and talks continue with care.

And yes, the transfer saga moves slowly, so much that even a snail would check the calendar.

If suspense paid salaries, Kessi would already be a billionaire by now. Stay tuned.
