Al-Ahli
Transfers to Al-Ahli
Kessie has agreed to a transfer to Saudi Pro side Al-Ahli FC from Barcelona for 12.5 million Euros.
ANALYSIS
Kessie played just a season with Barcelona, where he failed to establish himself in the starting XI, making just seven league starts in 28 appearances, totaling a goal and an assist in that span. The 26-year-old will head to the Saudi Pro League, where he is expected to make a quick transition into the lineup.
