Reports in the Sky Italia have it that Atalanta have rejected the Blues’ approach for the midfielder, turning down a £21million bid for Kessie.
The report also claim that the Serie A side is holding out till summer with suggestions that his value will increase as they also want to keep their stars after selling Roberto Gagliardini to Inter while Mattia Caldara is expected to Juventus in 2018.
Kessi has been a brilliant figure for Atalanta since his debut season in 2015, scoring seven goals and two assists in 17 appearances.
