Transfer window: Tottenham offer £8.4m-a-year salary to Frank Kessie
Tottenham have reportedly made a significant contract offer to AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie, who wants out of the San Siro.
The Ivory Coast star’s contract runs out at the end of the season, alerting the likes of Spurs, Manchester United and PSG to the possibility of signing the highly-rated midfielder on a free transfer next summer.
Sportitalia TV reporter Rudy Galetti claimed that the north London club have tabled a salary offer of around €10million (£8.4m) per season.

That would make Kessie one of Tottenham’s highest-paid players, besting even Son Heung-Min’s current salary.
Whatsmore, a report in the Daily Express claims that Kessie has turned down Milan’s latest contract offer and officially wants out.
The 24-year-old would bring a different dimension to a one-paced Tottenham midfield that lacks creativity.
