Can Arsenal challenge Chelsea, Tottenham and PSG for £40m-rated player?

Arsenal’s ability to challenge Chelsea, Tottenham and Paris Saint Germain for Italian Serie A outfit AC Milan star Franck Kessie is being reviewed.

The Italian news outlet reports that Franck Kessie was first followed by West London side Chelsea before Tottenham and PSG came into the scene to seek for his availability.

However, The North London outfit have now joined the race and it is now looking unclear who will win the race for his signature.

It is important to note that Franck Kessie is one of the important players in the Gennaro Gattuso team and the Italian boss is not willing to lose him which will make it a tough one for the suitors to land.

Suggestions are that none of the suitors will be able to land Franck Kessie in this winter window with Milan ready to hold on to him until the end of the season as they are struggling with inconsistent season;

Arsenal are therefore not ranked amount favourites to land Franck Kessie because of his asking price which can be more demanding for the North London side.

Meanwhile, it has been established that the North London club will only secure loan deals this winter window and not permanent deals.
