Franck Yannick Kessié (born 19 December 1996) is an Ivorian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Spanish side Barcelona and the Ivory Coast national team.

Club career

AC Milan
On 2 June 2017, Kessié joined fellow Serie A side AC Milan on a two-year loan deal with the obligation to buy.Originally, he chose 19 as his shirt number but soon was persuaded by the club's management to leave it for Leonardo Bonucci, who transferred to Milan a few weeks later; as a result, Kessié changed it to 79. Following Bonucci's departure in the next summer transfer window, he was offered his original shirt number back yet refused, citing that he does not want to force Milan fans to spend any extra money on his personalized shirts due to yet another number change.

2022–23: Barcelona
On 4 July 2022 Barcelona announced that they have reached an agreement with Kessiè after his contract expires with AC Milan and on 6 July, he signed on a four-year deal until 30 June 2026 and his buy out clause will be set at €500m
