Juventus will soon decide on the offer they will make to Franck Kessie!

Franck Kessié has emerged as a leading target for Juventus as the Turin club looks to strengthen its midfield ahead of the summer transfer window. The Ivorian, who previously starred for AC Milan and Atalanta in Serie A, is currently plying his trade with Saudi side Al Ahli—but his return to Italy is now being actively explored.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus are prepared to offer the 29-year-old a two-year contract worth approximately €5 million net per season, a figure that aligns with the midfielder's baseline expectations. However, several conditions must fall into place before any deal can materialize.

For starters, Kessié would need to signal his willingness to leave Al Ahli and accept a significant reduction in his current salary. On Juventus' side, securing a place in next season's Champions League is considered essential to making the move appealing to a player of his caliber.

While Juventus are pushing to bring Kessié back to Italy, they are not alone in their interest. Inter Milan and Fiorentina have also been linked with the powerful midfielder. Yet Al Ahli appear in no rush to part with one of their key assets, especially given Kessié's consistent performances since arriving in Saudi Arabia. In fact, the club is reportedly preparing to offer him a two-year contract extension with a lucrative salary in an effort to fend off the growing interest from Europe.
