In spite of his intention to remain in the FC Barcelona, everything aims to that Franck Kessié will go out of the Barcelona group in summer. The substantial offer of the To the Ahli is difficult to refuse so much for the club as for the player and, in this sense, 'The Ahtletic' ensures that the marfileño will not yield easy to the pretences of the Saudi group.
