Franck Kessie’s Visit: A Familiar Face in Paris Cheers on Barcelona

0

The FC Barcelona showcased an excellent performance at the Parc des Princes, a victory that transcended mere results. It spoke of feelings, gameplay, and the ability to rise against adversity. Xavi’s ‘liberation’ since the painful defeat against Villarreal at home has had a surprisingly positive effect, with the team undefeated ever since.

Among the 2,100 Blaugrana spectators, with only a regrettable incident involving two of them that doesn’t tarnish their overall great behavior, was a notable figure in the VIP section: Franck Kessie. The Ivorian midfielder, who left Barcelona unwillingly last season, was present at the Parc des Princes to watch his former teammates, accompanied by his wife and some friends.

Taking advantage of the break, Kessie, currently playing for Al-Ahli, was invited by one of his close friends from Barcelona last year, Ousmane Dembélé. They shared a strong bond, being the only Muslim players in the dressing room. Ousmane even traveled to Ivory Coast with Franck during a break. Fate led both away from Barcelona last summer.

Despite his distance, Kessie remains a fervent supporter of Barcelona, having been a fan since childhood and fulfilling a childhood dream by playing for the club last season. He maintains contact with many of his former teammates, who congratulated him when he won the Africa Cup of Nations at home in February.

During a break in Saudi football for Ramadan, Kessie traveled to the French capital, where he has family and friends, coinciding with his former team’s match, which he hadn’t been able to watch this season. He’s having a fantastic year, not only winning the Africa Cup of Nations but also playing a crucial role for his team in Saudi football, with Al-Ahli currently in third place, securing a spot in the Asian Champions League.
