Juventus Dreams of Kessié's Return... Salary Complicates the Deal
Juventus club still hopes to sign Ivorian midfielder Franck Kessié on a free transfer next summer.
Despite the appeal of the deal from a technical standpoint, the biggest obstacle is the player's high salary, which amounts to about 14 million euros annually.
This figure is beyond Juventus' financial capability, as the club cannot pay more than about a third of this amount.
Therefore, the possibility of completing the deal remains contingent upon Kessié agreeing to significantly reduce his salary or finding a suitable financial arrangement between the parties.
