The Future of Kessie at Stake: Saudi-European Conflict Threatens Al-Ahly Star's Stay
Wednesday 06-05-2026
The future of Ivorian Franck Kessié has entered an uncertain phase with Al Ahly Club, as his contract is set to expire in June 2026, and negotiations for renewal between the two parties continue to stall.

There is a sense of anticipation within the club's corridors, as no final agreement has been reached so far, which opens the door to the possibility of his departure during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Reports indicate that the player is considering studying new offers, especially after the successful experience he had in the Saudi Roshn League in the recent period.

Kessie is attracting interest from several local clubs, with Al-Qadsiah standing out as one of the main contenders interested in signing him, alongside Neom, which has entered the race to contract him with strong intent.

On the European front, Italian clubs are closely monitoring the player's situation, most notably Juventus, Inter Milan, and Roma, benefiting from his previous experience in Serie A.

Kessie delivered outstanding performances with Al-Ahli, most notably contributing to winning the Elite AFC Champions League title, in addition to being awarded the Best Player of the Tournament.

The final decision regarding his future remains pending, awaiting the outcome of negotiations in the coming period, amid an open struggle between continuing in Saudi Arabia or returning to Europe.
