Franck Kessie - ON

The Ivory Coast midfielder Franck Kessié has admitted he would be interested in moving to Old Trafford. The 20-year-old, who plays for Atalanta in Serie A, has been scouted extensively by Chelsea but is also believed to be of interest to Mourinho. “I like the Premier League and in particular Manchester United, the club I dream of playing for,” he said on Wednesday.

“Chelsea? That is also a big club, nobody would turn them down, but I dream of United.”






Never heard of the @#%&!. Any good?

Not sure, will have a look for you pal.

Midfielder you say?

Do it.

Looks quality. Like a faster, more technical version of essien.

Jose can pick talented midfield players, there's nqat.

Cheers lads. Combative. Could be Davids if you squint a bit. Bailly's mate. Get him to retire from internationals and I'm in.

Falls over a lot in those videos & doesn't seem to have a great first touch.

Not the midfielder we should be seeking, a Carrick replacement is paramount such as Verratti or Kroos. Obviously both would cost all the money.

If he's faster and more technical, in what way does he resemble Essien?

The Australian way.

We need more than one midfielder. Nowhere near enough options. Carrick and schweinsteiger and Fellaini could all be out the door in the summer. Or at least two of them.

GPWM - would be handy if TF-M got a run out in the middle of the park to show he could do a job for us there rather than at full-back in the meantime.

Still, matey in the video wasn't that comfortable on the ball IMO, which is pretty much the first thing I want a Utd player to be if he's in there.

Not saying he is good enough, not see anywhere near enough of him

Just saying we shouldn't be dismissing players because they aren't a replacement for Carrick. We need more bodies in there.

And tfm is currently miles off being a decent option in midfield. I don't see his career there personally.

No idea what your first acronym is BTW

That could be described as a good point, well made?

Looks like he'd kick the shit out of TClevz23.

For that reason, I'm all aboard the Kessie Express
