Manchester United fan Franck Kessie is one of the most in-demand players in Europe!

A report in The Sun links the Atalanta midfielder with Chelsea but Kessie has gone on record to say that his dream move would be to Old Trafford.

The 20-year-old has made a big impact in his first season in Serie A being one of the key players as the unfashionable club from Bergamo sit in sixth place and chase a European place.

Kessie’s agent hasn’t been slow to promote his agent and held talks with Tottenham and Chelsea in December, in a radio interview he claims to have 20 clubs interested in his star client.

United defender Eric Bailly is an international team-mate of Kessie and has been happy to ‘sell’ the club to the midfielder who has been likened to a young Yaya Toure.

Atalanta were pleased to keep hold of Kessie during the January transfer window but are resigned to losing the midfielder with bids likely to start at £30m.
