Barcelona technical director Jordi Cruyff has ruled out any possible departure for Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie in the January transfer window.

There have been lots of talks about a possible exit for Kessie due to a lack of game time, but Cruyff had ruled out any possibility of that move.

“There is no plan for him [Kessie] to leave [in January], despite the fact that I have read rumours,” Cruyff said in his interview with Mundo Deportivo.

Tottenham have been linked with a strong move for Kessie, and even went after the Ivorian during the summer transfer window.

Meanwhile, reports claim Barcelona may be open to seeing Memphis Depay leave in January.
