JAKARTA - Franck Kessie has officially joined the Spanish giant club, Barcelona. The former AC Milan player said, Xavi Hernadez was the key figure in his move.

After his contract ended with AC Milan, Kessie became a player on a free transfer. Barcelona is a club that is lucky to get the services of the 25-year-old player.

For Kessie, joining the Blaugrana is a big opportunity in the continuation of his career. He then emphasized that he would give the best for his new team.

“This is a big opportunity. I really want to start and do my best for this team," Kessie told Mundo Deportivo.

The player from the Ivory Coast is also looking forward to working closely with his coach, Xavi Hernandez, a figure he greatly idolizes.

"When a great coach like Xavi Hernandez calls you, you see that all your efforts are not in vain. I can't wait to start working with him and my team-mates," explained Kessie.

After agreeing to sign a contract in March, Kessie will play for Barcelona until 2026. To fence off the midfielder, the club even included a release clause of 500 million euros or Rp. 7.8 trillion.
