West Ham United boss Manuel Pellegrini is said to be keen to add Franck Kessie to his midfield.

West Ham United fans are keen to see Franck Kessie signed from AC Milan.

The Daily Express claims that West Ham are keen on Kessie, who could cost £30 million to sign from Milan.

The midfielder has enjoyed an excellent season in Italian football, where he has caught the eye.

And West Ham fans really want Manuel Pellegrini to push the boat out in an attempt to land Kessie.

West Ham don’t face a clear run to sign Kessie, as the midfielder is also wanted by Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur (Express).

If the 22-year-old was to arrive at the London Stadium he could be a promising addition to Pellegrini’s squad though.

West Ham are thought to be looking to strengthen in the centre of the pitch, and Kessie would work well as a box-to-box midfielder.

Kessie scored seven goals in 34 appearances for Milan last season, and if he repeated those sort of figures for West Ham he would be a fine addition.
